Sheheryar T. Sardar has experience in commercial and civil litigation, corporate law, international law, dispute resolution, election law, and lobbying and legislative affairs.  As the Founder of Sardar Law Firm LLC, Sheheryar has provided unparalleled legal advice to a variety of clients, proving that even that most challenging obstacles clients face can be resolved through diligent and zealous representation.

Sheheryar’s professional background is diverse.  Recently, Sheheryar worked on complex legal issues, including qui tam cases, class action lawsuits, business dissolution, employment discrimination, corporate fraud, partnership breach of fiduciary duties, creditor-debtor relations, and federal labor discrimination.  During law school, he assisted Senior Counsel at The Coca-Cola Company in its Marketing Division, analyzing complex vendor licensing agreements and Fortune 500 corporate partnership contracts.  Prior to Coca-Cola, he worked in-house at Scientific Atlanta – A Cisco Company, where he analyzed telecommunication technology licensing contracts and assessed expansion strategies of broadband technology into new geographic areas.  His work so impressed his supervisors that he received a “Superior Rating.”

As a summer associate at the Prague-based law firm Kriz & Belina, Sheheryar drafted a technology licensing joint venture agreement between a Czech entity and a South African company and analyzed various European bilateral investment treatises pertaining to government takings of private entities, resulting in shareholder dilution.  One supervising attorney found his work to be so exemplary, that his international client remarked, “your associate’s work is excellent.”

Sheheryar’s private sector accomplishments are complimented by his work at all levels of government.  At the U.S. Department of Labor, Regional Solicitor’s Office, he assisted in all aspects of litigation arising under federal statutory law, focusing on MSHA, OSHA, USERRA and Title VII claims.  During one particular multi-jurisdictional litigation strategy meeting, one litigation attorney stated, “I really liked your questions on this issue, very impressive.”  Further, Sheheryar was a Judicial Intern for the Hon. Anthony J. Parrillo of the New Jersey Superior Court – Appellate Division, where he researched and wrote on the corporate veil piercing doctrine.

Prior to law school, Sheheryar worked as a Legislative Assistant at the Georgia State Capitol – Secretary of the Senate’s Office, where he developed his acumen for lobbying.  During law school he applied those skills at the Barton Child Law & Policy Clinic, engaging in child welfare reform during the 2007 Georgia legislative session.  He is also an accomplished performing artist, having acted in various independent films, modeled nationally for Fortune 500 companies, and won numerous awards in the field of dance, enabling him to understand the nuances of business and legal issues in the field of entertainment.

In addition to his litigation and corporate work, Sheheryar specializes in Islamic Finance and Shar’iah compliant transactions.  With a focus on a cultural understanding of both parties, he is developing a niche in this practice area.  As a nominated board member of the International Trade Committee of the NYC Bar Association (Sept. 2009 – Present), Sheheryar is also specializing in complex international trade issues.
