February 11, 2026 00:14:03

Hasan Mandviwalla spent 11 years in the UK legal system before returning to Pakistan to practice in a jurisdiction where enforcement is a daily challenge. In this episode, I sit down with Hasan (Partner at Mandviwalla & Zafar) to discuss why "adaptability" is the most important skill for a modern lawyer and why longevity is the only real metric of success. He shares his golden rule for career growth, "Always do instead of don't", and explains why waiting until you are ten years into your career to start networking is a mistake you can't afford to make.
