Khadija Ijaz Rahim is Joint Managing Partner of ALIPA and heads its patent department. She drafts and files patent applications to national and international standards, manages the objections that follow, and co-heads the firm's trademark opposition work.

Her practice centres on intellectual property, with patent prosecution and trademark enforcement across several jurisdictions and a particular focus on the SAARC region. Her work also covers trademark infringement and copyright matters, and Asia IP describes her as a tough but sensible litigator.
