As widely reported in the press, Omer Soomro was yesterday appointed Minister for Law, Religious Affairs and Human Rights in the caretaker Provincial Cabinet of Sindh.
Omer is a highly regarded advocate. He became a Partner at RIAA Barker Gillette in 2009 and headed our dispute resolution practice in Karachi. His appointment is a testament to his expertise, integrity and commitment to public service.
Omer Soomro will not be practising law with the firm during his term in office. Designated partners will handle the matters for which he was responsible to ensure continuity of client service.
We congratulate Omer on adding this latest achievement to his distinguished career. He previously served for two terms as Honorary Secretary of the Sindh High Court Bar Association.
All of us at RIAA Barker Gillette wish Omer the very best as he embarks on this important appointment in service to the people of Sindh.
