Uzair started legal practice in 1997 by taking over the firm started by his father, Mr. Justice (Retd.) Karamat Nazir Bhandari. That firm then grew into Bhandari & Naqvi in 1998 and Bhandari Naqvi Riaz (BNR) in 2003.

Uzair is consistently praised by both clients and judges alike as “a phenomenon” for his “very strong courtroom skills and an encyclopedic knowledge of Pakistani case law.” He has had a role in developing local jurisprudence in numerous areas of the law, and has a number of reported judgments to his credit. He has been ranked as one of the top litigators in Pakistan by Chambers & Partners since 2004.

Uzair is an avid tennis player and is slowly preparing himself for the day when he will no longer be able to watch Roger Federer play. Uzair’s renowned knowledge of caselaw is well matched by his knowledge of Urdu poetry, particularly Faiz and Ghalib.
