Admir Muratovic was born and raised in Slovenia, where he obtained his bachelor and master’s degree in law. He received a “Best thesis award” by the UN Association for Slovenia. He spent two semesters on Erasmus+ student exchange programs at Istanbul University, Turkey and Ghent University, Belgium, and successfully competed in international law moot-court contests around the world. For two years he was part of a university’s pro bono legal clinic providing free legal aid.
As a junior legal advisor, Admir interned in the Sarajevo office of Trial International, an NGO headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, fighting against impunity for international crimes and assisting victims of war crimes in Bosnia and Herzegovina in their quest for justice. Before moving to the US, he was a legal assistant in the Government of the Republic of Slovenia, working on issues of succession amongst the republics of the former Yugoslavia. In 2021, he started an LL.M. (Master of Laws) program at Wayne State University Law School, where he was a research assistant in international law.
Admir is particularly interested in the history of Bosniak immigration in the US, going as far back as the end of the 19th century. Even at his young age, he managed to establish a wide rapport by visiting many Bosniak communities throughout Europe and in the US.
