Our Legal Capabilities

At Legal Law Firm, our work covers a wide range of legal issues that people and businesses face in Pakistan. From civil lawsuits and criminal defence to family disputes, property matters, corporate transactions and regulatory work, our lawyers in Lahore focus on clear advice and strong representation.

Legal SERVICES

We provide a mix of advisory, transactional and dispute-resolution services for local and international clients.

Advisory / Transactional

At Legal Law Firm, our advisory and transactional team supports clients at every stage of a business deal. We assist with structuring, negotiating and drafting commercial agreements for local and cross-border transactions. This includes joint ventures, share and asset purchases, financing documentation and routine business contracts.

Before you sign any major agreement, we review the terms, highlight risks in simple language and suggest changes that protect your interests. We also advise on company law, regulatory approvals and compliance requirements in Pakistan so your transaction is legally sound from the start.

Our lawyers work with both local and foreign investors, banks and companies. Whether you are planning a new project, expanding your business or restructuring an existing arrangement, we provide clear, practical legal advice to help you close the deal with confidence.

Projects

Pakistan is seeing steady activity in energy, infrastructure and public–private partnership (PPP) projects. Our projects team advises sponsors, lenders, contractors and public bodies on the legal side of these complex transactions.

We assist with project structuring, concession and implementation agreements, security documents, land and regulatory issues, and project finance (including Islamic finance structures). Our lawyers are familiar with government policies, public procurement rules and the typical risk allocation in long-term infrastructure and energy projects.

From early feasibility to financial close and beyond, we aim to give clear, commercial advice that allows all parties to understand their rights and obligations and move the project forward.

Litigation

Legal Law Firm has an active litigation practice in Pakistan. Our litigation lawyers appear regularly before civil courts, criminal courts, special tribunals and the High Courts. We handle constitutional petitions, commercial disputes, banking and finance matters, tax cases, white-collar crime and property disputes.

For every case, we review the facts, documents and legal issues, then explain the possible options in straightforward terms. We prepare pleadings, evidence and arguments at all stages – from pre-trial applications to appeals. Our focus is on building a strong, practical case strategy that matches the client’s goals.

We also represent clients before regulatory and administrative authorities where decisions can affect their business or personal rights.

Arbitration

Many commercial contracts now require disputes to be resolved through arbitration rather than regular courts. Our arbitration team represents clients in both domestic and international arbitrations involving construction contracts, shareholder disputes, joint ventures and other commercial agreements.

We assist with drafting arbitration clauses, appointing arbitrators, preparing claims and defences, and handling evidence and hearings. Our lawyers also act in court proceedings related to arbitration, such as enforcement of awards or applications to set aside an award.

Whether the arbitration is seated in Pakistan or abroad, we focus on efficient case management and clear communication so clients understand the process, timelines and possible outcomes.

Consultancy – Law & Development and Legislative Drafting

Apart from traditional legal practice, Legal Law Firm also undertakes consultancy work in law and development. Our lawyers have experience working with international organisations, development agencies and government bodies on projects involving legal reform and institutional strengthening.

We assist with reviewing existing laws, identifying gaps and drafting new legislation, rules and policy documents. Our team has contributed to projects in areas such as financial-sector reform, infrastructure regulation and private-sector development. We work closely with economists, policy experts and technical specialists to ensure that legal frameworks are practical, enforceable and aligned with international standards.

This combination of local court experience and policy-level work allows us to provide balanced advice when laws and regulations are being designed or updated.

Internal Investigations and International Anti-Corruption

Companies operating in Pakistan and abroad face increasing scrutiny under anti-corruption and compliance laws. Our internal investigations and anti-corruption practice helps businesses respond to allegations of bribery, fraud, misconduct or regulatory breaches.

We assist boards and management in planning and conducting internal investigations, interviewing employees, reviewing documents and preserving electronic records. Our lawyers are familiar with international frameworks such as the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) and similar laws, as well as local accountability laws and proceedings.

Where necessary, we coordinate with foreign counsel, regulatory authorities and the National Accountability Bureau (NAB). We also help clients design and implement compliance policies, training programmes and reporting systems to reduce future risk.
