Mr. Chalaki’s career began in the IT industry, where he worked as a consultant after earning his Bachelor of Science degree in Management Information Systems. He specialized in Internal Audit and Business Reorganization and worked on various projects, including Facility Event Management for Microsoft and Compass Bank. He also spearheaded his private group, which focused on Smart Home Technology and One Point Access.

After opening his solo practice, Mr. Chalaki founded a second law firm Chalaki and Khirrallah Law Firm to focus on litigating matters for other law firms.

Mr. Chalaki’s passion for technology never wavered, and he implemented a paperless office and started automating the practice of law.
