About Jahangir Hossain
Adv Jahangir Hossain is an advocate with TRW & Co in Dhaka. Jahangir Hossain advises on commercial contracts, corporate governance and compliance and related matters, and is known within the team for thorough preparation and straightforward, practical advice.
Jahangir Hossain supports companies and founders on the legal foundations of a business: incorporation and licensing, constitutional documents, board and shareholder decisions, and the contracts that carry day-to-day trade. The emphasis is on documents that work in practice and on compliance that stands up to scrutiny.
At TRW, Jahangir Hossain works alongside the firm's partners and associates across six fields of practice, so a matter that touches corporate law & commercial advisory or partnership firm registration & dispute capacity is handled by one coordinated team rather than passed between separate advisers.
Clients of Jahangir Hossain include founders, start-ups, family businesses, foreign investors and established companies. Each matter begins with a clear plan: what must be proved or documented, which authority or court is involved, what it will cost and how long it is likely to take. That clarity lets clients make decisions early, when they have the most options.
Good outcomes usually come from good preparation. The documents are reviewed in detail, identifies gaps before the other side does, and keeps clients informed so that settlement opportunities and procedural risks are spotted early rather than late.
