Area of Practice

Legal Document Drafting & Deed Writing

Quick answer

Sale deeds, agreements, wills, gift deeds and other legal documents drafted and registered correctly the first time. Irfan Mir Halepota & Associates represents clients in this area before the relevant Karachi courts and tribunals.

A large share of the property and contract disputes we litigate trace back to documents that were drafted by someone without proper legal training — an inexperienced deed writer who didn't understand the legal requirements, producing paperwork that creates complications years later. We draft and register legal documents directly, so clients get documents built to withstand a dispute, not just to close a transaction.

What this covers

  • Sale deeds, agreements to sell and purchase
  • Gift deeds (hiba) and exchange deeds
  • Wills and testamentary documents
  • Lease and rent agreements
  • Powers of attorney, including for overseas clients
  • Registration of documents with the Sub-Registrar

Where we appear

  • Sub-Registrar offices, Karachi
  • Civil Courts (where drafting disputes proceed to litigation)
Forum selection and limitation periods are often decided in the first conversation about a matter — the earlier we're involved, the more options remain open.

Common questions

Why does it matter who drafts a sale deed or agreement?

A poorly drafted document — vague on possession, payment terms, or default consequences — is exactly what gets exploited in a later dispute. We draft with the specific transaction and its likely points of future disagreement in mind, not from a generic template.

Can you prepare a power of attorney for a client living abroad?

Yes, including powers of attorney executed and attested at a Pakistani embassy or consulate abroad, which is the usual route for overseas clients who need to authorise someone in Pakistan to act on their behalf.
