About Shamla Pather.

Shamla’s upbringing and family life was simple and humble, and this set the tone for her to want to succeed. Whilst she has done well as an attorney, her humility and simplicity are obvious traits she possesses.

Our Founder

Family Time is Family Time

She has a great support system.  Her family, including her daughter Jayde, has adapted to a schedule that works for everyone. Jayde is the light of Shamla’s life and to date her biggest and best achievement. Jayde is adoring of her mother and equally proud of her. Jayde says, “Whatever needs to be done, mum makes a plan”. Jayde is currently in University in Cape Town. 

Shamla’s husband Dan is a successful, hardworking medical doctor who reminds Shamla constantly of the value of life. Dan is a huge inspiration to Shamla and he has been unselfish in giving Shamla all the latitude to create a name for herself. It is a rare trait that Dan possesses, and this is Shamla’s strength. 

An Amazing Woman

“Anything can be achieved with hard work, determination,
and dedication”

Shamla attributes her success and hard work to her late mum, who passed away whilst Shamla was in her final year at university. 

Athletes inspire Shamla daily. As an athlete at school, Shamla uses an athlete’s focus that gives her strength and endurance: “The start of any problem for me is like a sprint race. I have done my preparation and training and I am ready. I focus on the last 50 meters with confidence and my natural legal endurance will take over and I will succeed.”

“Being a woman should not be looked upon as a handicap but rather a compliment. When I went for my first interview for articles of clerkship, I was offered a secretarial position with a higher salary, as I was told that I looked the part of a secretary more than that of a lawyer. I was not deterred.” Now, Shamla confidently says that
she has won many matters against that firm.
