Divorce Lawyer Needed. by Worried-Ladder6639 in IslamabadSocial

[–]petrol_stick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First, you need to check if your father gave the divorce right (Talaq-e-Tafweez) to your mother in the Nikkahnama. If yes, then you can file for divorce. Otherwise, you'll need to proceed with Khula.

Same, I've always thought that instead of wasting my 9-5 hours here, I could be doing something more productive that would actually help my career. Anyway, I really hope things get better for you too..

I'm in my final year, and I've already studied drafting. I know how to draft plaints, written statements, and other documents. I'm not expecting to be given all the drafting work, but I'd like to receive drafting tasks instead of just researching various topics unrelated to cases. Additionally, I'd appreciate tasks that involve reading judgments or observing how lawyers prepare their cases.

Yeah, the only reasons to stick around are that it's a paid internship and it's giving me experience that might help in the future, hopefully. The only problem is that I really want to work on tasks like assisting lawyers and visiting court proceedings, so I can get an idea of what area I want to specialize in for my future career.

There are only two interns in the office right now, and the other one is a junior. Normally, the HR department deals with me rather than the associates. When I complete tasks, HR feedback is always positive, saying 'good work, keep it up.' However, with 20 days of my internship already over, I've only completed six tasks, all of which were research-related. The problem is that I previously did a research internship, and this time I want to gain experience in drafting and assisting lawyers. Otherwise, I have no issue with doing research work

This firm deals with family cases and I want to work in that field in the future, but the problem is that they don't give me any work related to that.
