Not one to keep her wisdom to herself, Sumera has penned numerous articles on trending legal matters and employment-related topics. While she doesn’t frequently speak at conferences, her written contributions to the field extend her influence far beyond the walls of Askews Legal LLP.

Her illustrious career includes some significant highlights, too. Sumera completed her legal training with an international law firm and has advised corporate giants. Her involvement in advising the PharmaLex Group on its merger with Regulis Consulting Limited stands out as a hallmark moment in her journey.

Outside the office, Sumera is anything but one-dimensional. Yoga aficionado, countryside explorer, and late-night gym enthusiast—her pursuits are as diverse as her legal portfolio. She also harbours a deep love for traveling and soaking up new cultures, broadening her worldview in ways that enrich her personally and professionally.

Sumera was quick to respond to my request for legal support relating to VR and kept me regularly updated through what turned out to be a protracted process (on the part of the employer). I was grateful for her advice and support throughout, particularly when I needed bespoke changes to make the agreement fit for my context. Sumera was tenacious and assertive on my behalf, and kind and communicative when liaising with me, earning my trust and respect early in the process.
