FAQ
Civil — Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a civil case take in Lahore?
+
Most civil suits at the District level take 2–4 years to conclude due to docket pressure, with appeals adding further time. The Lahore High Court has issued case-management directions to accelerate disposal — competent counsel can substantially shorten timelines through focused pleadings and effective use of summary procedures.
What is a suit for specific performance in Pakistan?
+
Under the Specific Relief Act, 1877, a buyer can sue for the actual transfer of immovable property where the seller has refused to honour an agreement to sell. The plaintiff must prove a valid contract, readiness and willingness to perform, and absence of laches. We routinely file such suits and obtain stay orders against third-party transfers.
