“You can't separate peace from freedom because no one can be at peace unless he has his freedom.” - Malcolm X
Kamran Sajid (he/him) is a strong advocate of his clients' rights—a passion that developed from growing up in a difficult inner-city neighbourhood in Cornwall, Ontario. His perseverance resulted in him being the first individual in his household to graduate high school. Prior to law school, Kamran double-majored in philosophy and sociology at the University of Toronto, graduating with high distinction.
While in law school at the University of Toronto, Kamran further developed his passion for criminal justice. He was involved in the LAWS program which was aimed at encouraging youth to enter the legal profession. He was also part of the editorial team for the Indigenous Law Journal—the first and only Canadian journal that exclusively covers Indigenous legal issues.
Kamran was called to the Bar in 2022 after articling with a well-respected criminal defence firm in Toronto. Since then, he has developed a practice in both trials and appeals. He has conducted and won several difficult trials and appeals.
In Kamran’s spare time, he spends time playing basketball, watching Laker games (often nervously), and making both friends and family laugh with his energetic personality.
