In Dr. Fathipour's words

Most disputes that reach a courtroom took shape years earlier, in an incomplete sale agreement, an ambiguous clause or a division no one put in writing. For thirty years my work has been to see that point before it turns into a dispute, and when it already has, to stand by my client's right through to the very last stage.

Dr. Alireza Fathipour

About Dr. Fathipour

Dr. Alireza Fathipour has practised law for thirty years. He holds a PhD in Civil Law from the University of Tehran and is a Grade-One Attorney at Law and a member of the Gilan Bar Association. He has served on the board of the Gilan Bar Association and of SCODA, the Union of Iranian Bar Associations.

His work centres on the three areas where most legal knots in families and businesses begin: property, contracts and inheritance. In these cases, knowing civil law is half the job; the other half is precision with documents and patience in following a case through.

His office is in Rasht, but his clients come from cities across Iran and from abroad. Meetings are held in Persian; for clients whose first language is not Persian, he works with experienced translators.

Practice areas

Three areas, thirty years of focus. In each, we stay with the client from the first document to the last stage of proceedings.

Who we work with

The office is in Rasht; the cases come from everywhere.

Iranians living abroad

Living outside Iran doesn't have to stall your property or inheritance matter. Much of the work can go ahead under a power of attorney you sign at an Iranian consulate. We coordinate by WhatsApp and work with experienced translators for foreign documents and correspondence.

What if I can't make my appointment?

Message the office on WhatsApp and we'll find you another time.

I live outside Iran. How can I move my case forward?
