Objectives
Pakistanlawyer.com is a website targeted not only at the lawyers
and intellectuals but also to law students, those interested in
law and people in common.
The main
objectives of Pakistanlawyer.com can be classified into
following broad goals:-
a) Awareness
of law
b) Promotion
of law
c)
Utilization of information technology in law.
d) Providing
assistance to lawyers and law students in research
The
objectives of Pakistanlawyer.com can be well understood, if we
understand the background and analyze the difficulties lawyers
and general public are facing.
Generally
the common people of Pakistan are unaware and ignorant of
various laws enforced. There are common misconceptions about
laws and law enforcing agencies. Sometimes innocent people do
what is termed as grave wrong just because of lack of knowledge.
General impression of law is very vague and in many cases the
concept is totally opposite to what law actually is. Law
develops as society evolves. Awareness of law among the members
of the society is therefore, main factor for development of
society.
People are
deceived because of unawareness of law. People do not access
government authorities or to the courts because of not being
aware of the laws.
On the other
hand Pakistani Lawyers are in general unaware of the use of
information technology. Computers are restricted for the use of
word processors. Email addresses are acquired but never used. A
few belonging to this noble profession is, to an extent, knows
the merits of information technology. The aim of
Pakistanlawyer.com is to attract lawyers to adopt information
technology and to take advantage of this wonderful technology.
We at Pakistanlawyer.com are endeavouring hard to cause lawyers
to combine law and technology together for the benefit of the
whole community as well as for the system.
