Throwback from my time in the Legal and Compliance Department at Daraz (Alibaba Group).
During my period of 4 months there, I developed an understanding of the complete Agreement process, from initiation to ex*****on, and the involvement of relevant departments such as business, tax and finance, which enabled me to assist in the vetting of Agreements.
A significant part of my time involved legal research on relevant laws, statutes, rules and ordinances. This included research related to the Companies Act, SECP Regulations, Customs Laws, Taxation, Internal Policies and Labour Laws.
Along with my POC for litigation, I was involved in online case diary tracking and management of more than 30 cases, as well as case file management for these matters. Not only this but also, I worked on addendums, BOR & Extracts and Engagement Letters of external counsels.
In addition, I independently addressed 3 legal notices received from customers by coordinating with cross-functional departments such as CS and QCC through to the final issuance of responses.
