What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can apply litigation and corporate compliance expertise, grow under senior counsel, and contribute to client-focused legal solutions in a collaborative, learning-oriented firm.

I am a dedicated and result-driven legal professional with over two years of experience as a Legal Associate, specializing in corporate, civil, and criminal law. My work has spanned across litigation, client advisory, compliance, and dispute resolution. At ANZ Partners, I have gained significant exposure to corporate and commercial law, particularly in handling company-related disputes, SECP compliance, trademark matters, and contract drafting. My previous role at Shaheen Law Chamber provided me with hands-on experience in service laws, writ petitions, and client representation before the Islamabad High Court, where I successfully managed cases involving promotions, reinstatements, and disciplinary actions.

Throughout my career, I have developed strong skills in legal drafting, research, case preparation, client negotiation and managing office work as legal assistant. I have actively engaged in client meetings, file preparation, and legal documentation, ensuring professionalism and confidentiality at every stage. My ability to balance legal expertise with administrative efficiency has allowed me to deliver high-quality support in both litigation and advisory roles.

Beyond my professional journey, I have a keen interest in international law, regulatory compliance, and dispute resolution mechanisms. I am passionate about learning new legal frameworks, exploring emerging global regulations, and expanding my expertise in cross-border legal practices.

With proven adaptability, fluency in English, and proficiency in Microsoft Office and online legal research tools, I am eager to contribute to organizations that value precision, client service, and innovative legal solutions.
