Jamal Bakalian
Senior Solicitor
What are you passionate about?
Shielding clients from the often harsh climate of litigation by ensuring that they are protected through carefully considered strategy and an intimate understanding of the law. I am passionate about building relationships with clients based on mutual respect and valuing their rights and interests.
What makes a good lawyer?
An outstanding lawyer is one who approaches their clients with empathy and seeks to understand their instructions with a sense of compassion. I believe that good lawyers are tenacious and problem-solvers by nature, engaging every challenge with a dynamic and vigorous attitude.
In the words of Thomas Edison, ‘Genius is one percent inspiration, ninety nine percent perspiration.’ I believe that there is no substitute for hard work and focussing on the fine detail of the task at hand to ensure that the big picture results are favourable to our clients.
Why did you choose to be a lawyer?
I chose to become a lawyer to protect the vulnerable from being disadvantaged and to seek justice in everything I do, placing personal integrity at the height of every decision.
What do your clients say about you?
Jamal is an honourable Solicitor whose compassion and legal expertise are greatly appreciated by her clients.
