Our team consists of recognized market-leading individuals, supported by a first-ranked team, including those who have advised on landmark energy and infrastructure projects in the MENA region. Our team has worked closely with the clients to identify risks and mitigate them through tailored solutions and consists of lawyers with capabilities to deliver legal and strategic advice in relation to major energy and infrastructure projects. 

 

The team has advised lenders and project sponsors, including having been involved in structuring many of the ‘firsts’ infrastructure transactions in Pakistan, including wind, solar, Thar coal, and LNG import terminals. Our team has also acted for a wide range of funders (including multi-lateral lenders such as IFC, ADB, ISB, OPIC, FMO and other similar lenders as well as all the leading banks in Pakistan) and has also been representing leading developers in Pakistan.
