Inheritance & Property Lawyers in Karachi
Securing your rightful share of inherited property under Islamic and Pakistani law.
Your Inheritance Rights — Enforced
Inheritance shares under Muslim Personal Law are fixed by Allah — no family member can legitimately deny another heir their prescribed portion. Where family disputes, fraudulent transfers or outright refusals prevent you from receiving your share, our inheritance team pursues your rights firmly and effectively.
Islamic Inheritance Distribution
We calculate precise inheritance shares under Hanafi personal law considering all relevant heirs — spouses, children, parents, siblings and other relatives. We prepare clear share allocation statements and facilitate family settlements where possible.
Partition Suits
Where heirs cannot agree on the division or sale of inherited property, we file a partition suit (taqseem) in the civil court. The court appoints a commissioner, values the property and orders equitable division or sale, distributing proceeds according to the correct shares.
Challenging Fraudulent Transfers
If a co-heir has fraudulently transferred inherited property to themselves — through forged documents or misrepresentation — we file a declaration suit to void the transfer and an FIR for forgery under Sections 420, 468 and 471 PPC. Both tracks are pursued simultaneously.
Will (Wasiyat) Challenges
Under Muslim Personal Law, a will is only valid for up to one-third of the estate. Any bequest that exceeds one-third and prejudices the remaining heirs can be challenged in court and reduced to the permissible maximum.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about this practice area
Inheritance shares under Muslim Personal Law are legally fixed. File a declaration suit confirming your share and a partition suit compelling division of the property. If documents were forged, add a criminal FIR under Sections 420, 468 and 471 PPC. We pursue civil and criminal tracks simultaneously for maximum effect.
A wasiyat (will) under Muslim Personal Law is only valid for up to one-third of the total estate. Any bequest beyond one-third that prejudices other legal heirs can be challenged and reduced to the permissible limit. We regularly challenge wills that exceed this boundary and restore the correct inheritance distribution.
We handle complete inheritance proceedings for overseas clients through Power of Attorney. We identify all assets, calculate shares, file the necessary court applications and manage the entire process remotely. We have successfully recovered inherited property for clients in the UAE, UK, Canada and USA.
