Shaheed has a broad practice which includes commercial law, civil liberties/human rights, public law/regulatory law and public international law. Many of her cases involve group litigation and aspects of conflict of laws, public international law or foreign law. She is identified as a leading silk in the latest editions of Chambers UK, Chambers Global and the Legal 500 for her expertise in Administrative and Public Law, Civil Liberties and Human Rights, Commercial Litigation/Dispute Resolution, Group Litigation, International Human Rights Law and Public International Law.

In 2023-2022 she was shortlisted for Commercial Dispute Resolution Silk of the Year (2023; Chambers Bar Awards); International Law Silk of the Year (2023; Legal 500 Bar Awards) and Group Litigation and Consumer Silk of the Year (2022; Legal 500 Bar Awards).

The extensive scope of her practice is reflected in the wide range of courts in which she appears (English courts; the European Court of Human Rights; the Court of Justice of the European Union; UN treaty bodies; arbitral tribunals) and in her diverse clients, which include:

  • States (e.g. Bahrain; Cyprus; Iran; Rwanda; Russian Federation; UK);
  • Companies and businesses (e.g. American Airlines; BHP; Gemfields; Glencore; Hyundai-Kia; Imperial Tobacco; Lloyds underwriters; Miramax; Newcastle United Football Club; Royal Mail; Shell; Volkswagen);

  • International organisations (e.g. the UN Refugee Agency; World Bank Group); and

  • Acting for the claimants in R (Certain Underwriters at Lloyds) v HM Treasury [2020] EWHC 2189 (Admin). The Court held that her clients, who sought to enforce a judgment of c.$51 million were entitled to information from HM Treasury regarding the location of frozen Syrian assets;
