MST Law Founder Furqan Mohammed participated as a guest speaker at the First Annual Job Fair hosted by the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA) Chicago. During the session, he shared his professional journey from BigLaw associate to founding and managing his own law firm, which focuses on representing individuals—particularly within Muslim and South Asian communities—who have been injured due to car accidents and other forms of negligence.
The presentation covered key topics relevant to aspiring entrepreneurs and professionals, including:
- Business fundamentals such as identifying niche markets and building lean, efficient operations
- Legal considerations for start-ups, including incorporation benefits, risks of commingling funds, and intellectual property protections like trade secrets
The event offered a platform for mentorship and practical guidance across industries, with attendees representing a wide range of career paths. Furqan appreciated the opportunity to contribute to the professional development of participants and to support ICNA’s broader mission of community empowerment.
