About the Chambers

An internationally recognised Pakistani litigation practice

Irfan Mir Halepota & Associates is a law firm in Karachi, Pakistan appearing before the Supreme Court of Pakistan, the High Court of Sindh, and the Federal and Sindh Service Tribunals, among others. Led by Irfan Mir Halepota, Advocate of the Supreme Court of Pakistan, the firm has built its practice on litigation — representing clients that range from individuals in family and criminal matters to some of the largest national and international corporations operating in Pakistan.

How the chambers is built

The team is a deliberate mix of senior advocates and associates: experienced counsel setting strategy, and associates who own the procedural work — drafting, filing, and evidence — that determines whether that strategy actually holds up in court. Every qualified lawyer in the chambers works this way, on the view that legal creativity only matters if it's backed by disciplined execution.

The firm has been recognised as one of Pakistan's corporate law chambers by Legal 500 and HG.org, alongside its long-standing litigation practice.

What clients can expect

Direct answers on forum & timeline

Before any engagement, we tell you which court or tribunal your matter belongs in and what a realistic timeline looks like — not the most optimistic one.

Early attention to procedure

Limitation periods, jurisdiction and interim relief are assessed at the first meeting, not after a filing deadline has already passed.

Continuity through the case

The advocate who takes the first meeting stays involved through trial and appeal — a client's matter isn't handed off as it moves stages.
