kak. School of Law
Not a conventional law department but a living legal education lab. A working environment where students study, research, draft, argue, interpret and apply law. Built around a structured 4-Year LL.B and modelled on the same "living lab" idea as Curate.

kak. School of Law is not yet admitting students. There is no application, no fee and no intake open for 2026–27. The founding cohort is planned for Fall 2027. Admission criteria, credit structure and the professional recognition required to practise will be published before that cohort opens — not before.
Pakistan does not lack law graduates. It lacks graduates who can stand up and argue.
It lacks graduates who have drafted a real document, faced a real bench, and sat opposite someone whose problem was not hypothetical.
kak. is being built as the opposite of lecture-and-memorisation: a living legal education lab, structured around a four-year LL.B in which advocacy is practised from the first year, not the last.
The kak. Law Floor
Not a lecture hall with a mooting society attached. Six rooms — opening with the founding cohort in 2027 — where law is researched, drafted, argued, applied and answered for.
The moot court room
A working court.
A raised bench, gowns and a real running order. Mock trials, appellate moots and the discipline of being interrupted.
Planned · 2027The legal drafting lab
Documents that would stand.
Contracts, pleadings, notices and opinions drafted to professional standard and marked as a practitioner would.
Planned · 2027Legal aid & community justice
Supervised, and real.
Assistance for people who cannot afford counsel — students research and prepare under qualified supervision.
Planned · 2027The legal research centre
Authority, cited correctly.
Case law, statute and comparative research, with the databases and the discipline that go with them.
Planned · 2027The law library
Bound reports and commentary.
The room that teaches the slow reading the profession still runs on.
Planned · 2027Seminar & policy forum
Where law meets policy.
Constitutional questions, reform argument and public submissions, argued in front of people who disagree.
Planned · 2027Six steps, as designed

The programme, as designed.
Foundations & first submission
Legal method, constitutional foundations and ethics — then your first short submission, argued aloud.
Research & drafting
Case law research and a drafting portfolio marked the way a practitioner would mark it.
Moot court & the clinic
Competitive mooting alongside supervised clinic work, where the person across the table is real.
Court exposure & specialisation
Structured court visits, an internship, and a chosen specialisation defended at the Policy Forum.
This school opens in 2027, so it commits rather than boasts.
Every graduate will leave with an advocacy record — moots argued, instruments drafted, supervised matters assisted, court days attended and a policy position defended — counted from the founding cohort onward.
A force to be reckoned with.
We have looked hard at the current framework of legal education. And we believe it must be challenged. The School of Law launches in Fall 2027 as a deliberate counter: a living legal lab that trains advocates who can think, draft, argue and lead, grounded in ethics and justice. Not another law department. A force the profession will have to reckon with.

Kamal Ahmed Khan
kak. is Kamal Ahmed Khan, who founded this university in 1987. Of all the schools that could have carried the founder’s initials, the law school was chosen deliberately.
Because the argument this school makes about the profession is the one he made about the institution: that it exists to serve people, and is answerable to them.
A school that has not opened cannot show results. It can state what it will count.
Published and counted from the founding cohort onward, so the first students can hold the school to exactly this.
Where it will lead
GX on the Law Floor
A degree proves competence. GX proves character. Along the journey, students develop the seven pillars, recorded in the GX Passport alongside the degree.
The GX Passport is the documented record of participation, leadership, service and professional development, completed alongside the degree. Explore GX

Not open yet. Worth knowing about now
Registering is not an application. No fee is payable.
