Quaid-e-Azam's Professional Integrity


Once a client entrusted a case to Quaid-i-Azam and asked him about his fees. Quaid-i-Azam said that his fee was Rs. 500 per hearing. The client said that he could pay only Rs. 5000. Quaid-i-Azam said he would appear only on per day basis. The client paid Rs. 5000. which he had with him. The case was decided after three hearings, and Quaid-i-Azam refunded Rs. 3500. to his client. His client wanted him to retain the entire amount, but Quaid-i-Azam said that he could not retain anything more than what was actually due to him.
