Get to the bottom of it.

Become involved with the case. Get to the bottom of it. Pour in your energy, your empathy. See new options even when situations look hopeless. This typifies Rachel Imamkhan’s approach. A passionate lawyer, for years she has been the advocate of Dutch prisoners being held abroad. It was for this purpose that she founded PrisonLaw in 2005 (www.prisonlaw.nl). 

Rachel took her law degree at VU University Amsterdam in 2004 with two masters, in constitutional law and administrative law. She started her career as an interim lawyer with several government institutions, but soon decided that she wanted to work as a lawyer in international criminal law and immigration law. This specialisation brought her to places such as Asia, where she analysed international legislation in relation to labour immigration and human trafficking for a number of NGOs.

She is a member of the Dutch Association of Lawyers Specialised in Migration Law (SVMA) and the Association of Legal Aid Lawyers in Amsterdam.

She is a member of

  • the Dutch Association of Lawyers Specialised in Migration Law (SVMA).
  • the Association of Legal Aid Lawyers in Amsterdam (VSAN).
  • and the the Mens en Strafrecht Foundation (MenS).

Imamkhan works as a lawyer both for her own law firm and for PrisonLAW.
