Who We Are

Our principal, Sarah Khan has an in depth and unique career in law. Although she did not start her career with the intention of specialising in criminal law, her exposure in the field and guidance from competent mentors, enhanced a passion she chose to pursue. She started as a paralegal in a boutique firm, and then as assistant to two prominent barristers (one of whom has been appointed to the District Court bench). Sarah then took on a tipstaff position with a Judge in the Supreme Court of NSW. She continued as an Associate with a variety of Judges for an additional year until she moved into private practice, once again specialising in criminal law. In addition to becoming a senior criminal law practitioner, Sarah was fortunate enough to also work in other areas of law, giving her a diverse set of skills and expanding her knowledge more broadly.

Sarah regularly appears as an advocate and finds her passion and strength lies in the courtroom fiercely defending her clients. She is passionate about great results and having a strong presence in Court. She says “preparation and respect is key”.

Sarah has appeared before the NSW courts in some of the State’s most important cases and continues to brief the country’s leading barristers in her matters. She also appears interstate.

Sarah is an active member of her profession and volunteers her time with other organisations, promoting issues affecting her community or encouraging awareness amongst her peers. She is also a mentor to her junior colleagues and students whishing to pursue a career in law. She is approachable and called upon for advice regularly.
