Saadet Demirci
Legal Assistant
Saadet is a second-year law student at the University of Windsor Faculty of Law. Her path to law has been shaped by a strong interest in understanding people and advocating for their voices to be heard. She first graduated from York University with an Honours degree in Psychology. While her passion was always law, she chose psychology to better understand the human mind and behaviour, something she greatly appreciates now as she pursues her legal career. She later earned her Paralegal Education Certificate from Humber College before beginning her current journey in law school. Aware of how challenging the legal system can feel, she is committed to helping people navigate it with clarity and care. For Saadet, law is not just about rules but about people and the positive change it can bring to their lives. Outside of school, she enjoys staying active and finding new ways to stay engaged and balanced.
