About Overseas Counsel

Millions of overseas Pakistanis face a frustrating reality: managing legal affairs in Pakistan from thousands of miles away. Whether it is renewing a NICOP, resolving a property dispute in Mirpur, obtaining a NADRA certificate, or handling a family court matter — the process traditionally required expensive trips to Pakistan, unreliable local contacts, and endless bureaucratic delays.

Overseas Counsel was founded in 2020 to solve this problem. Based in Lahore — Pakistan's legal capital — our team of registered lawyers provides a complete remote legal service for the Pakistani diaspora. We use legally executed Powers of Attorney to represent our clients at NADRA offices, courts, union councils, and government agencies across Pakistan.

Our clients include British Pakistanis in Birmingham and Bradford, Pakistani Americans in New York and Houston, Canadian Pakistanis in Mississauga and Toronto, and diaspora communities across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Australia, and 10 more countries. For all of them, we are their trusted legal team in Pakistan.
