Shafagh Daneshfar

I am admitted to practice in England and Wales.
 
I am interested in commercial disputes, including fraud, corporate crime and investigations. I have a keen enthusiasm for alternative forms of dispute resolution, including arbitration and mediation.
 
I have experiences in a broad array of disputes, including those involving international arbitration and litigation in the civil courts. I have worked on matters involving professional negligence as well as employment and media disputes.
 
My non-contentious legal experience is concentrated in corporate and media law. I developed my skills in these fields during a six-month secondment to a major media organisation.
 
I have long been involved in supporting Fieldfisher’s work with the Queen Mary Legal Advice Centre. I first began my association with the Centre during my own time as an undergraduate at Queen Mary, University of London. I am passionate about supporting up-and-coming and first generation solicitors, including those from under-represented communities.

When not working, I enjoy exploring new cities and neighbourhoods on foot. An avid knitter, I also enjoy crocheting and curling up with a good book and a cup of tea. I am fluent in Farsi.
