About the Firm

Built to be Different

Law Legacy Bangladesh is a premier full-service law firm at Banani DOHS, Dhaka. Founded by Mahmudus Salehin — a UK-trained Barrister with LLB & LLM from the University of Derby — the firm was built on a conviction that Bangladesh's evolving legal landscape demands a firm that marries deep local knowledge with internationally oriented legal thought.

The firm is anchored by Former Justices of the Supreme Court as Partner Advisers, a serving Assistant Attorney General as Head of Chamber, and UK-qualified founding leadership — a combination unmatched by any newly established firm in the country.
