Senior Partner at DV Solicitors

It’s a visceral memory for Qamar-Ur-Rehman: He recalls bringing a piece of rug from the house he lived in to sit on the floor because the Primary school he was attending could not afford furniture. Growing up in a less than ideal childhood, losing his parents at a tender age never ceased him from defying the odds of dreaming big and making it a reality.
It took many more years for Rehman— at the helm of his own successful and growing solicitors firm, Deo Volente Solicitors based in the UK—to finally grasp the hard work beneath his and his mother’s fingertips.

A heritage to embrace, his family is originally from Pakistani roots. His humble beginnings as a young village boy raised South of Islamabad in a small village called Hafyal— impacted his life journey. Raised by a widow with his five siblings, they all climbed their ways out of hardship, searching for a better life. He always deemed his mother his primary source of pride and inspiration— and is a firm believer that God allowed the most challenging times in his life because He was shaping him for something greater. Indeed, there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Prominent in the legal industry, Qamar-Ur-Rehman LLB, MA, initially practised as an advocate and later on as a solicitor for over 19 years. Used to be a one-man-show called ‘Rehman Solicitors,’ he rebirthed his firm, now Deo Volente Solicitors, and has risen through the ranks to serve the needs of people of all walks of life thirteen years later.

Rehman was recently awarded Best Professional in Business at the 8th British Muslim Awards 2020. In his speech during the ceremony he said “It is proof enough of this mantra: I can and I will. I have and I did— I am still learning and expanding— I am always dreaming big.“ A manifestation that nothing is impossible with faith, hard work and dedication.
