FAI Media Reels
Short reels on what people get wrong about Pakistani law, spoken in Urdu with the words on screen in English. Each one ends with the court and the citation.
Wrong in Punjab: section 159 gives gratuity when the job ends from either side, after a year. Yes, after a year. Section 159 of the Punjab Labour Code 2026 pays 30 days' remuneration a year when the job ends from either side, except for gross misconduct.
Statute · Punjab Labour Code 2026 s.159
Half right: section 260 needs you to know it was fake. Up to seven years for using it, but only if you knew it was fake; the seller who knew, up to seven; the maker, up to life.
Statute · Pakistan Penal Code s.260; Stamp Act s.35
Wrong: sitting together is not the obscene act of section 294. Sitting together in your car is not the obscene act of section 294, and an officer who detains you without need can face five years.
Statute · Pakistan Penal Code s.294; Police Order 2002 Art. 156
Wrong: any police officer in uniform can ask, and papers at home get ten days. Any police officer in uniform can ask for your licence and registration; papers at home can be shown at a police station within ten days.
Statute · Provincial Motor Vehicles Ordinance 1965, s.90
Wrong: a Justice of Peace can order one, and the offence carries up to five years. Entering a home without lawful cause is an offence under Article 156 of the Police Order, and a Justice of Peace can order the FIR.
Peshawar High Court · Cr. M/QP No. 87-P of 2018
Wrong: the landlord pays a fine and the eviction case goes on. The landlord pays a fine of ten percent of a year's rent, and the case goes on. A tenant's ownership claim does not stop it.
Supreme Court of Pakistan · Civil Appeal No. 132-L of 2013
Half right: 406 and 420 carry up to 7 years, 489-F up to 3, and 9C goes by drug and weight. Two of them carry up to seven years, one up to three, and the fourth now goes by the drug and its weight. The date of the offence decides which table applies.
Balochistan High Court · Criminal Jail Appeal No. 63 of 2022
Wrong: dependent parents can claim it from their sons in the Family Court. A mother or father left dependent and without means can go to the Family Court. The sons get a full hearing too.
Lahore High Court · Writ Petition No. 58342 of 2025
Wrong: it means twenty-five years, with at least fifteen served. The Supreme Court counts it as twenty-five years, and every life prisoner serves at least fifteen.
Supreme Court of Pakistan · Criminal Review Petition No. 72 of 2007
Wrong: the court's help lasts three years from his death. Mehr is a debt and does not end with him. But a suit for it has three years, counted from his death.
Lahore High Court · Writ Petition No. 56215 of 2019

What he reads
FAI answers only from an indexed corpus: the statute books, the judgments the courts publish themselves, and the reported headnote archive. If a section or a judgment is not in the record, he says so instead of inventing an authority.
Judgments from the Supreme Court, every High Court and the other superior courts, from 1947 onward. On the Professional and Chambers plans you can search the Supreme Court of India too: persuasive in Pakistan, never binding.

The four-part answer
The same four parts in the same order, every time. Findings first, the exact statute text, the precedents on both sides, then where each came from.
The position first, in the order a senior expects it. Never a wall of text.
The exact section text from the indexed corpus. Not a paraphrase, not from memory.
Precedents from the courts' own records, with the case for and the case against.
Every fact carries where it came from, so the answer can be checked line by line.
The amount of every bond executed under this Chapter shall be fixed with due regard to the circumstances of the case, and shall not be excessive; and the High Court or Court of Session may in any case, whether there be an appeal on conviction or not, direct that any person be admitted to bail, or that the bail required by a police officer or Magistrate be reduced.
Three modes
One question box. FAI reads what you typed and switches to the right mode or suggests it. A Court control narrows the search when you already know the forum.
Talk a matter through. Quick, conversational, still grounded in the record.
The full four-part answer with statutes, judgments on both sides and sources.
Pick one of 70+ templates, answer the questions it asks, edit the document in place.
Two answers, not one
You are never staring at a spinner. A fast model gives you an unverified read within seconds, and the grounded answer replaces it once the record has been checked.
A quick answer starts streaming before the corpus is touched, badged "unverified".
It is on screen while retrieval runs against 17,768 sections and the judgment archive.
The verified answer lands beneath it and the badge flips to "confirmed against the record".
Drafting
Choose the document, or just describe what you need and let FAI pick it. Answer the questions it asks, and FAI fills a lawyer-reviewed skeleton with your facts and the authorities it found. Edit the draft inside the app, then download it as PDF or Word on any paid plan.
Paste or upload your own plaint, reply, notice or clause. FAI edits it paragraph by paragraph and shows every change, struck through and highlighted, for you to accept or reject. Facts, names, dates, amounts, citations and qualifiers stay locked unless you unlock them.
Citations are gated. A draft may cite only sections and judgments that exist in the record. Anything the engine cannot verify is left out, not made up.
Prints on the FAI Legal Document System sheet. Court-ready layout, cause title, prayer and verification where the template calls for them.
Built for the working day
Ask the way you would ask a colleague. Legal terms, statute names and citations come back exactly as the record has them.

Questions
FAI Legal Research Assistant is an AI legal research and drafting tool built specifically for Pakistani law. It searches 19,771 indexed statute sections across 240 acts and ordinances together with verified Supreme Court and High Court precedents, then returns a structured answer: the legal findings, the statutes that apply, the judgments on both sides, and the sources used. It is made by FAI Productions and runs in the browser at failegal.site.
Precedents come from five official court sources: the Supreme Court of Pakistan, the Lahore High Court, the Peshawar High Court, the Islamabad High Court and the Federal Shariat Court, mirrored from the courts' own published records, 23,343 judgments in full, on top of 188,602 reported judgments in the headnote archive. The statutory index covers 19,771 sections across 240 acts, including the Pakistan Penal Code, the Criminal Procedure Code, the Civil Procedure Code, the Qanun-e-Shahadat Order, the Contract Act, the Companies Act, the Constitution and the special acts. The reported archive also covers the Sindh and Balochistan High Courts, the courts of AJK and Gilgit-Baltistan and the tribunals. On the Professional and Chambers plans, 29,261 judgments of the Supreme Court of India are searchable too; they are persuasive in Pakistan, never binding.
A general chatbot answers Pakistani law questions from memory, which is where invented citations come from. FAI answers from an indexed corpus: the statutory text it quotes is the exact section text retrieved from the index rather than a paraphrase, and a citation is marked verified only when the judgment was actually retrieved from the court source. Where it cannot confirm a citation, it says so instead of producing one. FAI is not a model trained on Pakistani law: it retrieves statute text and judgments from its index when you ask, and a language model writes the answer from what was retrieved.
Yes. Draft mode carries 70+ templates: pre-arrest and post-arrest bail, writ petitions, plaints and written statements, suits, appeals and revisions, family matters, contracts, deeds, notices and more. You answer the questions the template asks, FAI fills a lawyer-reviewed skeleton with your facts and the authorities it found, and you edit the document inside the app. Every citation in a draft is gated against the record. The output is material for an advocate to settle and file, not a substitute for professional legal advice.
Free costs nothing: 10 queries and 10 drafts every month, permanently. Paid plans start from Rs. 825 a month (Student, billed yearly) and go up to Chamber. You can pay monthly, quarterly or yearly; one payment covers the whole period and nothing renews automatically. Student, for law students and beginners: Rs. 990 a month, Rs. 2,670 a quarter (Rs. 890 a month) or Rs. 9,900 a year (Rs. 825 a month). Professional, for practising lawyers and researchers: Rs. 2,985 a month, Rs. 8,060 a quarter (Rs. 2,687 a month) or Rs. 29,850 a year (Rs. 2,488 a month). Chamber, for law firms and institutions: Rs. 9,985 a month, Rs. 26,960 a quarter (Rs. 8,987 a month) or Rs. 99,850 a year (Rs. 8,321 a month). Every price is already 40% off its list price as launch pricing. Every paid plan includes PDF and Word download and a daily research allowance and a daily drafting allowance that refill every morning, metered separately so running out of one does not stop the other. Paying yearly gives two months free, and organisations that need more can ask for a custom plan on WhatsApp.
Yes. The Free plan is permanent, not a trial. It is auto-approved, needs no payment details, and gives you 10 queries and 10 drafted documents every month against the same official corpus the paid plans search. You can open and read every document you draft, and copy its text; downloading it as a file is what the paid plans add. The allowance resets on the 1st.
The reported-judgment archive runs from 1947 onward, and the five court mirrors (the Supreme Court of Pakistan, the Lahore, Peshawar and Islamabad High Courts and the Federal Shariat Court) are mirrored in full. The mirror is a point-in-time copy that is refreshed periodically, so a judgment handed down in the last few days may not have been picked up yet.
Yes, on every paid plan. Answers and drafts are exported as PDF or Word with the findings, the statute sections and the judgment citations intact, so what you file away is the same record the assistant worked from. Free reads and copies on screen.
Nothing to install and nothing to configure. It runs in the browser, and the full research and drafting interface works on a phone as well as a desktop, which matters when the question comes up at the court rather than at the chamber. You can dictate a question with the browser's own speech recognition.
Yes. Free signs in on any number of devices, because it is metered in queries rather than seats. Student and Professional cover two devices, Chamber four, so a chamber can keep the same login on a desk machine, a laptop and a phone at court.
