Introduction
About me
I am Fatemeh Rakideh, a holder of a master’s degree in private law and a trainee lawyer at the Iranian Central Bar Association. As I pursue my legal career, I focus on developing my legal knowledge and gaining practical experience across different areas of law.
I combine my specialist knowledge of private law with ongoing study, the review and analysis of real cases, and the experience of professors and seasoned lawyers in order to examine legal questions and challenges carefully and methodically.
My approach to legal matters is based on a careful examination of the issue, an understanding of the circumstances and documents of each case, and the provision of legal options suited to those circumstances. My aim is to provide precise, fair and reliable legal services and advice, and to help clients make informed decisions about the legal path ahead.

Before any Legal action
Property disputes, contract matters, corporate matters, and criminal cases
A substantial part of this website explains how to identify the appropriate procedure for pursuing a case. In property matters, issues include ownership, official instruments, possession, ownership-based recovery of possession and partition. Property disputes also depend on documents and registration status. In cases involving transfer of property, claims to compel execution of an official transfer deed and judicial invalidation of an official instrument are important topics. Before taking action, the documents, registration records and parties’ obligations must be reviewed carefully.
For contract matters, the objective is more than preparing the contract text. Obligations, remedies for breach, termination provisions, damages and dispute resolution must each be assessed. This can prevent later litigation. In a contractual dispute, identifying the legal basis is important. The matter may concern termination of a valid contract, judicial invalidation or nullity or compelling performance of contractual obligations. The documents must also be reviewed before proceedings are brought. Remedies may have been agreed for delay or non-performance. In that situation, agreed sums for breach and contractual damages must be assessed against the terms of the agreement.
Alongside information about services, this website explains the stages of legal proceedings. Before deciding how to proceed, visitors should understand the documents needed and the available routes. Each topic also explains key points for an initial assessment. Company-law topics and criminal matters are covered in separate sections, each organised around the specialist topics in that practice area.
In property cases, the form of relief sought and sequence of steps are important. The requirements for an ownership-based claim to recover possession differ from those for restoration of possession, removal of interference and obstruction-of-rights claims. The supporting documents may also differ. For co-owned property, division and partition may arise before a transfer or transaction. For mortgaged property, discharge of the mortgage and release of the title document may require a separate step. These pages provide an initial introduction. Decisions about a case must be based on its documents and actual circumstances.
In contractual disputes, the contract, correspondence, performance and payment timetable matter. The parties’ conduct must also be assessed alongside those documents. Where a dispute arises from ambiguous terms, contract interpretation becomes important. Contract type also affects the obligations and remedies. Sale agreements, leases and related disputes and contractor agreements are distinct examples. The parties may have agreed a particular method for resolving disputes. In that case, arbitration and contractual dispute resolution may form part of the procedure. This material provides general information; review of the actual documents and advice tailored to the case remain necessary.

Frequently asked questions
Property disputes cover varied matters, including ownership-based recovery of possession, unlawful dispossession, claims to compel execution of official deeds, deed invalidation, partition, eviction and registration disputes.
The sale agreement, the property’s registration status, the seller’s obligation, the buyer’s payments, any mortgage or judicial attachment, and the scheduled notary-office date must be reviewed. If the requirements are met, an action to compel execution of an official deed may be considered.
Review the obligation, due date, remedies, termination right, agreed sum for breach and evidence of non-performance. Depending on the contract, performance, damages, termination or arbitration may be considered.
Articles of Association, Registration notices, Minutes of meetings and agreements between partners should be reviewed. The extent of the directors' authority and the subject of the dispute also play a role in determining the path of negotiation, arbitration or litigation.
First assess the possible offence and the evidence. Prepare a complaint matching the facts and file it through the prescribed procedure. For an accused person, the evidence and defence rights must also be reviewed from that stage.
