About Jamil Shamji

Jamil Shamji is a partner at Farhood Shamji Lawyers in Waterloo, helping clients with real estate and commercial transactions, civil litigation and wills. Waterloo Region is familiar ground: Jamil Shamji grew up between Perth County and the region, and Kitchener-Waterloo is still home for Jamil Shamji and family.

Strong Start, a charity that teams up with schools, community centres, educators and volunteers so young children can reach their potential through reading, added Jamil Shamji to its board of directors in December 2021.

The path into this partnership ran through a solo practice that served the Waterloo and Wellington regions. In 2020 Jamil Shamji became a partner at Kay Law Professional Corporation in Kitchener, where the practice centred on real estate deals, personal injury and employment matters. Ontario called Jamil Shamji to the bar in 2014, after law school in Oklahoma, and Jamil Shamji also belongs to the Texas State Bar.
