Mobilink Bank Partners with Legal Aid Society to Advance Women’s Inheritance Rights and Climate Resilience in Pakistan
Islamabad, May 20, 2025: Pakistan’s leading digital microfinance bank, Mobilink Bank, has partnered with Legal Aid Society under its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives to help women secure their inheritance rights through legal assistance, community outreach, and awareness-building efforts. The initiative builds on Mobilink Bank’s flagship inheritance rights campaign, The Invisible Heirs, which aims to raise awareness around the systemic challenges women face, and help them know & claim their rightful inheritance.

Through this strategic
collaboration, Mobilink Bank will financially support legal cases for women,
including climate-affected inheritance disputes resulting from displacement,
loss of documentation, and disaster-related exclusion, alongside non-climate
cases involving denial or coerced relinquishment of inheritance rights. The
initiative will provide case assessment, legal documentation support, court
representation, and follow-up assistance until resolution.
Commenting on the initiative,
Haaris Mahmood Chaudhary, President and CEO of Mobilink Bank said: “True financial
empowerment requires a holistic ecosystem that goes beyond access to banking.
It begins with ensuring women have access to their rightful assets,
opportunities, and financial agency. Through our partnership with Legal Aid
Society, we aim to help women secure what is rightfully theirs and support
their journey towards greater economic resilience and long-term empowerment.”

Barrister Haya Emaan Zahid,
CEO of Legal Aid Society, stated, “Access to justice is inseparable from
economic empowerment. For many women, inheritance is not merely a legal
entitlement; it is a pathway to dignity, security, and independence. We are
grateful to Mobilink Bank for supporting this important initiative and helping expand
access to justice for women who are often excluded from both legal and
financial systems.”
Mobilink Bank’s commitment
to inheritance rights also extends to digital empowerment through innovative
financial tools. As part of its inheritance campaign, The Bank introduced
Pakistan’s first in-app inheritance calculator on its Dost App, enabling users,
particularly women, to better understand and estimate their rightful
inheritance shares through a simple, transparent, and Shariah-compliant
process. By combining technology-driven financial awareness with legal aid and
community engagement, Mobilink Bank is working to address systemic barriers
that prevent women from accessing their lawful economic rights and achieving
long-term financial resilience.
Legal Aid Society also brings
over a decade of experience in advancing access to justice, particularly for
women and underserved communities across Pakistan. The organisation has reached
more than 87 million people through legal awareness initiatives, responded to
over 550,000 legal queries, and represented more than 3,000 cases. Through a
model that combines legal representation, community literacy, mediation, and
policy advocacy, LAS continues to work towards making justice more accessible,
inclusive, and impactful for all.
As part of the initiative,
awareness and legal literacy sessions will also be conducted to educate
communities about women’s inheritance rights, access to justice, and the
importance of financial empowerment.
The collaboration further
strengthens Mobilink Bank’s broader social impact agenda and reinforces its
commitment to building a more inclusive and resilient Pakistan where women have
equitable access to rights, resources, and opportunities.
