Zuber & Company LLP in Toronto
Shehmeen entered the legal field in 2021 with a mix of curiosity, determination, and just the right amount of stubbornness to make sure justice gets the last word. But before this, Shehmeen earned a Bachelor of Arts in Criminal Justice and Public Policy from the University of Guelph, laying a strong foundation for her future legal career. In 2024, she graduated with a Juris Doctor from the University of Windsor. Here, she combined her legal learning with a commitment to giving back to the community. This was evident in her roles at the University of Windsor’s Community Legal Aid clinic, where she served as a Caseworker, Summer Student, and Group Leader, as well as through her work as a Legal Extern with the Canadian Centre for Housing Rights.
Shehmeen joined Zuber & Company as a Summer Law Student in 2023. During this time, Shehmeen had the opportunity to experience and participate in every step of the civil litigation process, including her involvement in a successful liability trial. Since her 2L summer, Shehmeen actively assists with the firm’s social media and student recruitment. Shehmeen has now returned to the firm as an articling student where she will continue developing her legal skills under the mentorship of experienced and accomplished lawyers.
In her free time, Shehmeen enjoys spending time with her family and friends, and staying active. She also likes to watch foreign films and television and has a keen interest in all things beauty.
