Zakir K Mir, Esq. I am licensed in Pennsylvania, USA, with license number 320714. You can verify my status as a registered attorney via the official PA State lawyer directory, my website (Borderless Counsel), Avvo, or via the portfolio documents in my profile below . I have been licensed and practicing law in the US for 9-10 years. I’m also licensed in Nova Scotia, Canada, with License Number 2025-0022. My specialties are: Business Law and Contracts, Tax Assistance, Intellectual Property (including trademark filing), and US immigration petitions in particular. I am a corporate attorney with experience in the US, Canada, Europe, Asia and the MENA region (Middle East and North Africa). I am a member of the bar in Pennsylvania, and have worked as Corporate Counsel for a major global logistics company, overseeing legal matters in the US/Canada, Europe and Middle East. Subsequently, I worked in private practice, and now manage my own digital legal consultancy. I have litigation experience and have represented clients in lawsuits as well. However, my specialty is Contract and Corporate law (including corporate tax law), Immigration and Trademark Filing. Currently I serve clients in North America (Canada/US) and the Middle East (Dubai, GCC Region)/Asia/Europe through an office in Toronto, Canada and Manama, Bahrain, respectively. I split time between these locations. PLEASE NOTE: All of my work is not on Upwork, however, I am trying to bring more business on here, and also work with a larger variety of clients. If I've bid on your project, I have probably reviewed it carefully and believe it fits well with my expertise. Also, despite any ratings, the best way to figure out if I am a good fit is to have a preliminary discussion and set the scope of your project. So let's talk! Each client is different and each project has its own needs, whether big or small. I have a strict personal mandate to make sure that I am reliable, accessible, honest and attentive to your needs whenever we work together. Please review the documents in the "portfolio" section below to verify my credentials/licensing (below the review section). You can also browse my credentials and testimonials produced in my portfolio documents below. Some career highlights include: -Litigating major cases for my previous clients and winning judgments/settlements in excess of $500k-$2 million USD (one case I worked on as part of a team had a $20m USD settlement in my client's favor as well. However, I was part of a large team for this case). -Reviewing and drafting thousands/tens of thousands of contracts, and developing expertise with contracts and terms and conditions. -Assisting hundreds of clients in US immigration law, and with obtaining visas, permanent residency or other Immigration status in the US as an immigration attorney, and in Canada (through partners). -Registering and Applying for hundreds of Trademarks on behalf of my clients with the USPTO. -Successfully appealing and overturning many office actions refusing trademarks from the USPTO, and negotiating trademark settlement resolutions with third parties. -Registering many trademarks successfully in the US and internationally (UK/EU/Germany/Canada) via the USPTO and WIPO process. -Drafting credit control, terms and conditions and policy documents, which significantly mitigated risk and reduced costs/expenses for my previous company. -Forming offshore and US based corporations to create a complex and well integrated corporate structure to enable tax savings and the efficient allocation of corporate assets. I will be happy to be of service to any interested clients. INSURANCE DISCLAIMER: Also, do note that because I work offshore, there is no requirement or possibility for Professional Liability Insurance in my Jurisdiction, and therefore the terms of liability and insurance requirements related to my work on Upwork are governed by the PA rules of Professional Conduct and Upwork Terms and Conditions.
