How we can help | Key contacts | Awards

We have the most progressive global law firm in the region. Our responsive, cost effective and commercially focused services are appreciated by our international and local clients. We are the only international law firm to have offices in each of the GCC countries. Our lawyers are based in Abu Dhabi, Dubai (the United Arab Emirates), Cairo (Egypt), Doha (Qatar), Kuwait City (Kuwait), Manama (Bahrain), Muscat (Oman) and Riyadh (Saudi Arabia). In line with our plans for further growth throughout the Middle East, we have also recently established an Iraq Desk which is serviced through our Dubai office.

Our multi-lingual (Africaans, Arabic, Bahasa, Cantonese, Czech, English, French, German, Gujerati, Greek, Hindi, Italian, Spanish, Telugu and Urdu) internationally trained and experienced lawyers have local know-how and can undertake the largest and most complex of legal matters across an extensive range of legal practice areas and industry sectors. These sectors include government, social infrastructure (roads, toll roads, rail, schools, hospitals), life sciences, transport (logistics, shipping and aviation), capital markets, banking and finance, technology, media, health and leisure.

How we can help

The depth in our Middle East resources coupled with our international network means we can assist our clients in best achieving their operational and strategic needs. This is done by leveraging our:
  • In-depth understanding of the region, its regulatory environments, market drivers, legal practices and customs.
  • Worldwide experience of large-scale projects and transactions, of a size and complexity only recently being seen in the wider MENA region.
  • Regional network of offices in strategic locations throughout the Middle East, offering a seamless first-class service.
  • Strong local capability, providing our clients with on-the-ground support and guidance on their local, regional and global transactions.
