In a crowded field, several women – solicitors, prosecutors, barristers and senior counsel – are making their mark at the bar table. These are Sydney’s female lawyers to watch in 2022.
Jessica Fahmy is the principal at Fahmy Defence Lawyers, which she established in 2022 after 12 years’ experience at other firms. In 2021 Ms Fahmy represented Mirwais Danishyar, who is serving a minimum of 11 years in jail after being found guilty of being an accessory to Sydney underworld figure Pasquale Barbaro’s murder.
