About Us
Welcome, Your Legal Journey Companions
Hi, I’m SEENAN,
Hi, I’m a practicing attorney and the founder of Legals Gram. I built this platform because I know firsthand how difficult it is to make it through law school and the early years of legal practice—especially when you have no family background or connections in the legal field.
My journey into law wasn’t easy. I was once a confused and directionless student, unsure of how to navigate the academic chaos and professional expectations that come with pursuing law. On top of that, I carry the weight—and strength—of living with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML). Instead of slowing me down, it gave me clarity: if I am to dedicate my life to something, it must be out of passion, not circumstance.
Every setback I faced — from academic uncertainty to career frustration — became a lesson. Those lessons shaped not only who I am as a lawyer, but also the mission behind Legals Gram: to guide those who are lost, overlooked, or underestimated just like I once was.
I firmly believe that legal education should be accessible, honest, and practical — not hidden behind outdated traditions or unnecessary complexity. Whether you’re a struggling law student, a fresh graduate trying to find your path, or a young lawyer figuring out how to draft your first plaint — this platform is for you.
If nobody handed you the roadmap, don’t worry. I’ll help you build your own.
KALSOOM USMAN
Co-Founder & Content Creator
I am a 5-year LLB and Sharia graduate who found purpose in both the rigor of legal research and the freedom of storytelling. When I am not dissecting statutes or drafting legal pleadings, you’ll likely find me experimenting in the kitchen, perfecting recipes with the same precision I apply to my legal arguments or lost in the pages of a thought-provoking book.
I regularly write on Medium as a way to merge personal reflection with legal insight, and I am working toward my long-term goal of publishing a book that speaks to law students, young lawyers, and anyone navigating adversity. Writing, to me, is the bridge where law meets emotion, discipline meets creativity, and advocacy meets empathy. Legals Gram was founded on these very principles—not just as a legal resource platform, but as a voice for those who, like me, entered the legal field without family connections or mentorship.
Behind this mission stands my wife, my steadfast partner in both life and ambition. While I build structure, strategy, and content, she brings perspective, emotional clarity, and the grounding reminder that law is ultimately about people, not just procedures. Together, we built Legals Gram to simplify what most overcomplicate.
Our aim is to make legal learning practical rather than pretentious, to replace confusion with clarity, and to ensure that every student or young lawyer—regardless of academic standing or background—has access to tools that actually move them forward. Whether it’s through plain-language legal explanations, ready-to-use drafting templates, or insights into technology reshaping legal practice, we are committed to making growth accessible.
At its core, Legals Gram is more than a blog—it is a companion for those walking the uncertain path between law school and real advocacy. If you’ve ever felt lost, underestimated, or unprepared, know that we’ve been there too—and that’s exactly why we’re here for you.
Your circumstances do not determine your destiny — your determination does. You don’t need influential contacts, a perfect academic record, or a privileged background to become a great lawyer. What you need is persistence, clarity, and the right guidance. The legal journey is filled with complexity, confusion, and moments of self-doubt, but you don’t have to walk through it alone.
Whether you’re struggling in law school, feeling lost as a fresh graduate, or trying to turn theory into real-world practice, know this: every great advocate started where you are now. Together, we will turn uncertainty into direction and ambition into achievement. Let’s navigate the world of law — step by step, decision by decision — side by side.
