Interalegem S&N Law Firm

Pakistan's family courts are placing greater emphasis on mediation before litigation and that could change the outcome of your family dispute.

If you're an overseas Pakistani dealing with divorce, child custody, maintenance, or matrimonial property matters, understanding this shift can help you save time, reduce costs, and make better legal decisions.

Read our latest article to learn why mediation matters and what it means for your legal rights. https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7475100079532630016

Filing Khula in Pakistan from the UK? Here's what you need to know 👇

You don't need to prove cruelty or non-maintenance — just that you can no longer continue the marriage. No fault, no husband's consent required. And if you're in the UK, you likely won't need to travel, a Power of Attorney lets your lawyer handle it back home.

Your brother's word will not save your property in court.

It's the most common story we hear from overseas Pakistanis: "I trusted him. He's family." Then years pass. The land is sold. The mutation is in someone else's name. A tenant won't leave. And suddenly, that trust is the only thing standing between you and a courtroom with nothing on paper to back it up.

Pakistani courts and revenue offices don't run on promises. They run on documents. No registered Power of Attorney, no recorded family settlement, no sale or gift deed — and your case loses ground before it even begins.

Without a written legal instrument:
🔹 What a sibling CANNOT legally do for you: sell your share, transfer mutation into your name, represent you in court, receive compensation, or settle disputes on your behalf — no matter what was verbally promised.
🔹 What a sibling CAN do that quietly damages your title: take possession (qabza), collect rent in their own name, deny your share before witnesses, sell their portion to outsiders, allow encroachment, or let years pass until adverse possession arguments creep in.
🔹 What a proper legal instrument fixes: defines your share in writing, secures it in official land records, limits what others can do in your absence, gives you full legal standing to recover possession, and prevents inheritance disputes before they ever begin.
Distance isn't the real problem. Undocumented trust is.

Interalegem Team, wishing you the happiness of Eid-ul-Adha.

Most overseas Pakistanis don't think about a Power of Attorney until they urgently need one.
A property sale. An inheritance matter. A court date. A land transfer. And there you are, thousands of miles away, unable to sign, unable to act, watching the problem grow.
A Power of Attorney (POA) solves this.
It legally allows someone you trust, or your lawyer, to act for you in Pakistan, so you can:
🔹 Buy, sell, or transfer property
🔹 Handle inheritance and family property matters
🔹 Appear in court through legal representation
🔹 Manage bank, tax, and official formalities
🔹 Protect your land from illegal occupants and fraud
⚠️ But be careful — a badly drafted POA can be misused or rejected. Wrong wording, missing embassy attestation, or the wrong person holding it can cost you everything.
That's why it must be drafted and executed properly.
For 23 years, InteraLegem (S&N Law Firm) has helped overseas Pakistanis protect what's theirs, with Powers of Attorney built to stand strong in Pakistani courts and offices.
