Overview
In her first solo case Khadija went up against a named partner in an established law firm, who boasted of his 30 plus years’ experience practicing law. When the judge erroneously ruled in his favor on the issuance of a temporary injunction, Khadija appealed it. The temporary injunction was eventually reversed and despite the partner’s decades of experience, the plaintiff dismissed their case with prejudice.
For Khadija being a lawyer is about more than knowing the law; it’s about counseling and defending clients during their most challenging times. As a member of the firm’s Transportation & Logistics Service Group, Khadija counsels clients on regulatory compliance, preservation of evidence and risk avoidance. She handles personal injury claims, contract disputes and property loss.
Khadija’s bachelor’s degree in journalism serves her well as a lawyer, as she is known for being creative and innovative when crafting arguments. She also speaks conversational Urdu and Hindi.

- Lost in Translation: Trump Administration Overhauls English Language Proficiancy Compliance Requirements for Truck Drivers
Lost in Translation: Trump Administration Overhauls English Language Proficiancy Compliance Requirements for Truck DriversOn April 28, 2025, President Donald Trump published an executive order (“EO”) requiring the secretary of transportation to overhaul the compliance process of certifying a commercial driver’s English proficiency.
As set forth in 49 C.F.R. § 391.11(b)(2), the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations require a driver operating a commercial motor vehicle to “read and speak the English language sufficiently to converse with the general public, to understand highway traffic signs and signals in the English language, to respond to official inquiries, and to make entries on reports and records.” This change has many implications for the transportation industry.
