Hi, I’m Shikha
I’m an associate lawyer at Osuji & Smith in Calgary, and I work with people who need practical, human-centered legal solutions. My journey started in Lagos, Nigeria, took me through Bangalore and New Delhi in India, and finally brought me to Calgary, Canada—so I understand what it means to navigate big changes and challenges.
I’m not just about the law; I’m about people, strategy, and solutions that work in real life. Whether you need clarity in a legal maze or someone to advocate on your behalf, I’m here to make the process easier and the outcome better.
