My name is Engin Sanli, I am an international lawyer with law firms located in Germany and Turkey. Fighting against injustice has always been my passion because there is nothing more fundamental to human coexistence than justice. Although I was born and raised in Germany, there have been several situations in my life where I was treated with racism when I was young. As someone with a migrational background, it was a long and hard way to pursue my passion for studying law. But I never lost confidence in my abilities and despite difficult conditions, I fought and I won. Now, as a lawyer with profound knowledge of immigration law and the right of asylum, I defend democracy and the people, regardless of race, gender, religion or sexual orientation and I see my task in not only fighting for justice for my clients, but also in fighting for justice of society. That‘s why I also do voluntary work in many areas. I am also the CEO of the company called “new opportunities“ (newO) that aims to help foreign degrees being recognised to guarantee finding work in Germany. Equal opportunities and participation should be made possible for everyone, regardless of the social background or even their financial situation. I hope that everyone realizes how beautiful it is to live in diversity. Different cultures, nationalities and religions are an enrichment and should not be turned into obstacles.🍀
