Bio
Prash Nayar
I met Faiza through a local Chamber of Commerce - being part of its brilliant management team. She is often the life of meetings, imbuing amazing energy and always ensuring that prevention is better than cure when it comes to legalities around the decision made within the chamber It was truly inspiring to watch her embark on her journey towards her new legal business, she is meant for success and with a passion to help families through troubling times, I am certain she will continue to create positive change for all who surround her. Thank you always for your support & unconditional love!

I met Faiza when she was a senior associate lawyer with the law firm I'd signed up with for my divorce matters. I remember to this day the first time I met her at their office. It wasn't merely her welcoming persona that puts anyone at ease immediately but her amazing ability to grasp a complicated situation quickly. Any divorce is fraught with emotions of anger, regret, resentment, and fear and when it is a particularly acrimonious divorce after a 22-year marriage, you multiply those emotions 100 times. I met Faiza several times - for each affidavit, before each court hearing, at each twist and turn of the sorry saga of my divorce. I recall instances when, instead of answering her questions, I'd go off angrily into stories that had happened a decade back. She would quietly let me rant for a few minutes and then with amazing grace, maturity, and empathy would bring me back to the present and on track. I guess any divorce lawyer knows that they willy-nilly end up being the recipient of confidences that may or may not be relevant to the case. Faiza has the ability to sift through these stories, keep the ones that matter, and would remind me months later about something that would be appropriate to include in an affidavit. Her professionalism and sharp legal mind are what she brings to each case and she fought for me with a ferocity that I myself lacked at times. I don't wish a divorce on anyone, least of all a difficult one. However, if that is what is happening, I'd put all my bets on Faiza as my legal representative. Thank you, Faiza.

As a young community lawyer at Fortis Law Corporation, I will always be thankful for the 9 months that Faiza spent as my team's direct supervisor. She is well respected both inside and outside the courts. We clicked after our conversation on family law where we shared the same, but unorthodox belief that a bad marriage can be exited with grace and dignity, and this belief has always affect how we conduct our practice. The files that Faiza and I worked on together involved mainly HNW and UHNW clients. She gave me the freedom to do the work and manage the clients, and she would readily step in and provide guidance whenever requested - normally when matters became more complicated. I observed firsthand how Faiza connected with the clients at both the emotional and the intellectual level, and I was always in awe of her ability to command a room and get the most uncooperative client on her ideas. Faiza left the firm shortly after she got her Australia Permanent Resident, part of a bigger overall project for her family. We miss her at the firm and I'm grateful for the fieldwork that we got to do together. As a leader and mentor, Faiza gets 5 out of 5 stars for me. She will be a tremendous asset to any organisation looking for leadership with the personal touch.
