Business

Rana Ijaz & Associates LLC, based in Atlanta, Georgia, serves as a consulting and coordination platform that connects individuals, businesses, and organizations with trusted legal professionals in both Pakistan and the United States. While Rana Ijaz & Associates LLC is not a U.S. law firm and does not directly provide legal advice under U.S. law, it works closely with licensed attorneys and established law firms across the United States to ensure clients receive accurate, jurisdiction-specific guidance for their legal and immigration needs.

Atlanta is a thriving business hub with increasing commercial connections to Pakistan, making it a strategic location for U.S.-based clients seeking legal support in Pakistan, as well as for Pakistan-based individuals and companies looking to access U.S. legal services. Our Atlanta office functions as a point of contact and liaison—facilitating communication, document preparation, and case coordination between clients and the appropriate legal professionals. All legal advice pertaining to U.S. law is provided exclusively by attorneys licensed to practice in the relevant U.S. jurisdictions.

Our Areas of Focus Through the Atlanta Office Include:

Business Formation & Expansion: Assistance with establishing companies in Pakistan and coordination with U.S. attorneys for clients expanding into American markets.

Pakistan Legal Representation: Civil, criminal, and commercial legal services provided through our law chambers in Lahore.

Corporate Law & Mergers & Acquisitions: Advisory on corporate structuring, regulatory compliance, acquisitions, and governance.

Banking & Foreign Direct Investment (FDI): Legal assistance for financial structuring, inbound investments, and project finance.

Mining & Mineral Exploration: Legal advisory on mineral licensing, joint ventures, regulatory compliance, and export of minerals, with a focus on Balochistan’s copper, gold, and rare earth sectors.

Blockchain, Fintech & Digital Assets: Legal support for blockchain-based projects, token issuance, regulatory compliance, and cross-border financial technology ventures.

Media, Technology & Telecommunications Law: Advisory on media licensing, cyber law, e-commerce, data protection, telecom regulations, and digital content distribution.

Subsidiary & Branch Office Setups: Guidance on establishing foreign business operations in Pakistan, including licensing and structuring.

Cross-Border Contracts & Consumer Law: Assistance with drafting, negotiation, and enforcement of international agreements.

Bankruptcy & Liquidation: Legal representation in insolvency, restructuring, and asset recovery proceedings in Pakistan.

A Coordinated Legal Support System

Our role is to ensure clients receive qualified and compliant legal support on both ends of the cross-border spectrum. In the United States, legal matters are handled exclusively by our partner firms and attorneys who are duly licensed and experienced in immigration law, corporate law, and business advisory services. In Pakistan, our law firm Rana Ijaz & Associates provides direct legal services across a wide range of practice areas, supported by a seasoned team of lawyers with deep knowledge of local regulatory and commercial frameworks.

Clients benefit from a seamless and coordinated process, with support at every step—from initial consultations and documentation to final execution—ensuring clarity, compliance, and efficiency in legal matters involving both jurisdictions.

Immigration

At Rana Ijaz & Associates, we offer strategic immigration consulting services to individuals and families seeking to relocate to the United States or other jurisdictions through various legal pathways, including family-based immigration, work permits, student visas, business immigration, and investment-based residency or citizenship. Our services are provided through our law chambers in Lahore, Pakistan, and through our consulting arm Rana Ijaz & Associates LLC based in Atlanta, Georgia, USA.

We are not a U.S. law firm and do not directly provide legal advice on U.S. immigration law. Instead, our U.S. entity functions strictly as a supporting platform and coordination hub, connecting our clients with carefully selected and licensed U.S. immigration attorneys. These partner law firms and their attorneys are authorized to practice immigration law in the United States and provide legal advice and representation before U.S. immigration authorities and courts.

Our Pakistani legal team works in close coordination with these U.S. attorneys to prepare clients for consultations, organize documentation, assist in gathering evidence, and provide background legal support relevant to the client’s country of origin. This collaborative model ensures that clients receive compliant, licensed, and jurisdiction-specific legal advice, while also benefiting from local guidance and continuity of service in Pakistan.

Whether you are pursuing a U.S. Green Card through marriage or family sponsorship, exploring business or investment-based immigration options such as the EB-5 or E-2 visa, or seeking student or employment-based pathways, Rana Ijaz & Associates provides a well-coordinated, legally sound, and client-focused service by bridging the gap between your needs and the right immigration counsel in the United States

Through our strategic partnerships with licensed attorneys and established law firms in the United States, and in collaboration with our legal team in Pakistan, we offer clients comprehensive support in navigating the complex legal landscape of the digital economy.

Our MTT consultancy spans a broad spectrum of practice areas. In partnership with U.S.-licensed attorneys, we help clients address issues relating to Cyber Law, Data Privacy, and Data Protection, including compliance with U.S. state and federal privacy laws (such as CCPA and HIPAA), GDPR applicability, and cross-border data transfer strategies. We also coordinate legal services in E-commerce and Internet Law, supporting platforms, startups, and digital content providers with advice on intermediary liability, terms of use, consumer protection, and compliance with local regulations.

In the Telecommunications and Broadcast sector, our partner law firms advise telecom operators, content distributors, and digital infrastructure companies on licensing, regulatory compliance, and interconnection agreements. Clients also benefit from coordinated legal support in Information Technology and Technology Transactions, including software licensing, SaaS agreements, cloud services, and IT outsourcing.
