Senior Advocate · Constitutional & Service Law · available for new clients
Three decades before the High Court.
Writ petitions, service matters and constitutional cases for individuals, employees and institutions.
About
I have argued before the Lahore High Court for over thirty years. Constitutional cases need patience, careful drafting and respect for the court.
I work with a small team of juniors and take on a limited number of matters each year so each one gets full attention.
