She started her career in legal field as Assistant State Director of Insolvency Department Penang Branch before being transferred to be the State Director of Insolvency Department Kedah Branch as the State Director. After 3 years of serving the government, she decided to resign and get into private practice.
She then started her pupillage in Messrs Jayadeva & Kamal but managed to get exemption from doing 9 month-pupillage from the Attorney General. She was then called to the Bar on 24th November 2010 and was retained as a Legal Assistant in the same Firm until 31st December 2015. In January 2016, she became one of the partners in the same Firm. Nursyahana’s main portfolio was in general and civil litigation handling mostly on contentious matters. She was involved in numerous contentious matters involving Land Dispute, Fraud and Forgery, Employment, Defamation and others. Also due to her previous position as the State Director of Insolvency, she has vast experience and knowledge in the field of Insolvency Matters.
​
However, her journey in the Firm only continued until 23rd May 2016 in which she decided to move on by herself and set up her own legal firm.

She then started her new days as in-house counsel in her hometown, Penang where she worked at one of the construction companies as a Legal Executive there. Her deep passion towards the practising world led her to finally decide to return to the profession and she is now with us as one of the partners.
