In Detail

Understanding dispute resolution (litigation & arbitration)

Commercial & Civil Litigation

When disputes cannot be resolved amicably, we advocate for our clients before Civil Courts, High Courts, and the Supreme Court of Pakistan. We represent businesses and individuals in contract enforcement, specific performance suits, declarations, and recovery actions under the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908.

Domestic & International Arbitration

Arbitration offers a private, efficient path to resolving commercial conflicts. We act as counsel in domestic arbitrations under the Arbitration Act, 1940, and assist in foreign arbitral proceedings. We also handle the recognition and enforcement of foreign arbitral awards in Pakistan under the New York Convention.
