Mirza Ali Khan La'li, also known as Hakim La'li (1845–1907), was a writer and physician who wrote satirical Azerbaijani poetry "in the traditional style".[1]

Born in Erivan (Yerevan), at a young age, La'li moved to Qajar Iran and settled in Tabriz.[1] He pursued his medical studies in Constantinople (Istanbul) and returned to Tabriz afterwards, where he worked as a doctor until his death in 1907.[1]
