Accredited Specialist – Immigration Law
Ayah is our specialist immigration lawyer. She has extensive experience and proven expertise in immigration law. Ayah is one of only 49 lawyers in NSW formally recognised as an Accredited Specialist in Immigration Law by the NSW Law Society.
Ayah holds a Bachelor of Laws and Bachelor of Business from the University of Technology Sydney. She is admitted to practice as a Solicitor in the Supreme Court of New South Wales and the High Court of Australia. Ayah is a member of the New South Wales Law Society and a member of the Migration Institute of Australia. Ayah has a Palestinian background and comes from a family of migrants, allowing her to understand and connect with her clients. From a very young age, she developed a passion for law and justice, and aspired to become a lawyer. She completed her studies and legal training at the University of Technology Sydney in 2010, and gained admission to practice in 2011. Since then, Ayah has been working as a Solicitor.
She initially commenced her career working at a general practice law firm but decided that her passion lies in immigration and chose to specialise. Ayah gained her specialist accreditation in immigration law in 2016, after passing a series of meticulous assessments on both legal knowledge and its application in practice. At the time, Ayah was one of the youngest lawyers to be awarded specialist accreditation in immigration law.
With this background, Ayah now works exclusively on immigration matters, representing her clients vigorously. She runs the immigration practice at T&T Lawyers and her clients range from individuals and small businesses to more complex and large organisations. Ayah is often engaged by other lawyers and law firms to assist in more complicated immigration matters. She has mentored many young lawyers throughout the course of her career. Ayah has also worked as an Educator for the Migration Institute of Australia, presenting seminars and conducting workshops for other lawyers and migration agents as part of their continuing professional development (CPD).
Immigration is a complex and constantly changing area of law and having a specialist and experienced lawyer that is up to date makes all the difference. Ayah’s specialisation in immigration combined with her experience in other areas of the law give her an edge in representing her clients. Ayah’s immigration law experience is extensive and ranges from initial applications to more complex matters, such as tribunal and court appeals, visa cancellations, health and character matters and ministerial intervention requests. Ayah enjoys working on challenging cases and finding practical legal solutions for clients.
