Criminal defence in Pakistan

Criminal defence in Pakistan is priced per case. The figures we found for pre-arrest bail at a Sessions Court in Lahore were about Rs 25,000 to 50,000 in November 2026, according to lawyers' websites. Other fees depend on the charge, the court and the stage the case has reached. For current offers in your city, send a request on BlaBlaPrice and describe your case in your own words.

  • the charge and the procedural status of the case
  • the case stage: first hearing, trial or appeal
  • what is needed: bail, FIR advice or urgent court representation
  • whether a preventive measure is needed
  • the city and court, for example a Sessions Court or the High Court
  • the deadline for the next hearing
  • the lawyer's experience and your budget

Lawyers quote the fee per case, not per hour, and some offer a first 30 minutes of consultation free. Ask for the full fee in writing before you hire anyone.

Local rules and what to check

The Pakistan Penal Code, 1860, sets the punishments for offences committed in Pakistan, and the Code of Criminal Procedure is the main framework for bail. Ask your lawyer which of these applies to your charge and which court will hear it. A bail application at the Sessions Court is a different step from one at the Lahore High Court, and the fee for each is listed separately.

Season and the court calendar

Summers are very hot from May to September, which matters if you must travel to court in person. Ask early whether your lawyer can appear for you on the hearing dates, so the heat does not decide whether you attend. The mild months from November to March are easier for travel to court if you can plan around them.

How it is bought here

The cities we cover are Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi and Faisalabad. Ask which court in your city hears the case, because the lawyer's fee and the travel depend on it. Ask what the fee covers: filing, hearings and any appeal. Written terms protect you if the case moves to a higher court.

What to write in your request

Say what the charge is, the procedural status (for example, arrested, summoned or awaiting an FIR), the stage the case is at, and the court or city. Add the deadline for the next hearing, the experience you want from a lawyer and your budget. Mention which documents you already hold, so the lawyer can say what is still needed.

Describe your case in your own words in a chat on BlaBlaPrice; the service is free for buyers. Our AI asks for missing details, looks through lawyers' websites and price lists in Pakistan, and shows the prices and firms it finds. Registered lawyers reply in the chat with their own fee, and your contact details stay hidden until you choose to share them. This is not legal advice.
