ADVOCATE HIGH COURT

Saleem Asghar Shar

Criminal, Family & Civil Advocate — with a rare grounding in pharmacy and medicine.

He represents clients across criminal defence, family disputes and civil litigation, bringing a scientific understanding of medicine and pharmaceuticals to matters where the two fields meet — from medical negligence to drug-related cases.

A dual foundation, rarely found together

Most lawyers approach a medical file the way a layperson does — reading around the science rather than through it. Saleem Asghar Shar's background in pharmacy and medicine changes that. He can read a prescription, a lab report or a clinical note the way a physician would, and translate what it means for a legal case in plain terms for a client and a court.

That grounding sits alongside a broad general practice. He appears for clients in criminal matters, represents families through separation, custody and inheritance disputes, and handles civil claims involving property, contracts and recovery of dues — treating each matter with the same close, methodical preparation.

Clients come to him for a straight answer about where a case stands, what it will realistically take, and what to expect next — delivered without jargon and without unnecessary delay.

Article II

Areas of practice

Section 1

Criminal Law

Defence and representation at every stage — from bail and investigation through trial — for matters ranging from ordinary offences to complex criminal proceedings. Careful case preparation and a clear line of defence, explained to the client at each step.

Section 2

Family Law

Khula and divorce, maintenance, child custody and guardianship, dower (haq mehr) recovery, and inheritance and succession disputes — handled with discretion and an emphasis on resolving matters as quickly as the law allows.

Section 3

Civil Law

Property and title disputes, tenancy matters, breach of contract, recovery of money, and general civil litigation before the district courts — built on thorough documentation and a realistic view of what a case can achieve.

Section 4

Medical & Pharmaceutical Matters

Medical negligence claims, disputes involving pharmacies and drug licensing, and cases turning on clinical or pharmaceutical evidence — where a working knowledge of medicine, not just the law around it, makes the difference.

Article III

How he works

—

A direct first conversation

Every matter starts with a candid discussion of the facts, the realistic options, and what the process ahead will involve.

—

Prepared, not reactive

Cases are built on documentation and evidence gathered early, so hearings are met with a position already thought through.

—

Plain-language updates

Clients are kept informed in ordinary language, not legal shorthand, at every stage of their case.

—

Discretion as standard

Family and personal matters are handled with the confidentiality they require, from the first meeting onward.
