WRIT AND PIL
WRIT
It is known to all that a system of laws without effective remedies either fails in its mission or serves very little purpose. An effective system of remedies would also serve no good purpose unless there is a vast awareness of the existence and availability of those remedies. Out of all legal remedies, writ is a very important piece of legal remedy against the infringement of the administrative action which is increasing day by day in the context of the multifarious activities of the state. If cordial approaches are taken to the practical modification in the existing system of Law of Writs in Bangladesh, it can be proved truly effective as a remedy to the public.
The recommended steps, once adopted, can be further scrutinized to find out better ways to ensure the utility of this constitutional system. It can be said that, writ is the special kind of remedy provided by the High Court Division of the Supreme Court of Bangladesh. But such kind of remedy is not always available except in case of protecting the violation of fundamental rights. But in case of establishing any of the legal rights provided by any law of the land the aggrieved party has to satisfy the court that he has no equally efficacious remedy under that law etc. We the LAC Lawyers in Dhaka, Bangladesh (BD lawyers) has always kept the above connotation in our minds and worked diligently with complex problems which a Writ case could pose. our positive attitude towards each and every problem has always given us the forefront in such litigation.

Public Interest Litigation (PIL) Public interest litigation is a proceeding in which an individual or group seeks relief in the interest of the general public and not for its own purpose. Public interest litigation has enlarged and enriched the traditional doctrine of locus standi and had opened new remedies and procedures. Public interest litigation means a legal action initiated in a Court of Law for the enforcement of public interest or general interest in which the public or a class of the community have pecuniary interest or some interest by which their legal rights or liabilities are affected. At present, many changes are taking place in the judicial process and the problems of the deprived section of the community are coming on the forefront. The Courts in various countries have to innovate new methods and devices, new strategies for the purpose of providing access to justice to large masses of people who are deprived and to whom freedom and liberty have no meaning, Considering all these developing judicial trends, the Supreme Court of Bangladesh devised strong strategy to allow public interest litigation (PIL). Normally the person aggrieved may bring writ petition. In case of public interest litigation, any interested person may bring writ petition for the interest of public. Since inception LAC Lawyers in Dhaka, Bangladesh (BD lawyers) has been representing different pressure groups as well as communities who faced problems which can only be solved through PIL since without such forum rights of a portion of aggrieved people were not in any way could be protected.

Wrongful Termination
Generally speaking, “at will” employment means an employer may terminate an employee for any reason, or no reason, but not the wrong reason. The wrongful termination in violation of public policy exception prohibits employers for terminating employees for refusing to break the law. Under the wrongful termination in violation of public policy exception, employees may be entitled to compensation as a result of being terminated for refusing their employer’s request that they violate some public policy. The lawyers at LAC have some ongoing experience in litigating claims for wrongful termination.
Employment Contracts
Senior management and other employees may be offered contracts at various stages of their employment. Once hired, an employee may be offered an employment contract. When the employee is terminated or quits she may be offered a severance or release agreement. All of these contracts have specific future ramifications and terms that will affect the employee’s rights going forward. Such contracts should be properly drafted and negotiated to avoid problems down the road. Once entered into, contracts are often broken. Employers often terminate employees who have an employment contract.
