We have such a wonderful team at Johnson Law Group, who all work tirelessly to provide a first-class service to our clients. And with our team growing by the day, we wanted to take the time to introduce them!
Sadaf Khan is an Associate Solicitor at JLG, who joined us in July 2023.
Educational Background: I completed an LLB undergraduate degree followed by completing my Post graduation LPC at BPP Manchester. I qualified as a Solicitor in 2016.
Previous jobs: I have been working within the legal profession since 2009.
What does your job at JLG entail?
I am responsible for day-to-day conduct of several diesel emissions group actions in the UK.
What’s your favourite part of the job? Thinking outside the box to overcome issues that arise from the changing landscape of the English legal system and holding large corporations to account for the environmental damage their failures/deceit has caused.
What do you think the future holds for mass litigation in the UK?
I anticipate a rise in the prevalence of group class actions. As instances of high-volume cases become more prevalent, the courts will need to adjust to facilitate group litigation, this would be the only efficient way to seek justice through the courts.
Favourite Pastimes/Personal Life:
– I love spending time with my family and loved ones. It could be just talking or doing some activities together.

– I am an avid reader – I successfully completed a 52-book challenge in 2022 and have joined a similar challenge for 2024.
