Middle East

Our regional experience and network allows us to provide advice and consultation on a range of cross-jurisdictional matters, both contentious and non-contentious.

The vast number of jurisdictions in the Arab world follow the same framework of Civil Law, with a number of ‘Common Law Islands’ appearing in the UAE and Qatar, with more planned for development. We are adept at navigating the conflicts of laws between these jurisdictions, allowing us to provide both strategic and tactical litigation services, as well as counsel on non-contentious matters.

Commonly, clients tend to come to us looking for services from our network involving the following non-UAE jurisdictions:

  • Saudi Arabia

  • Bahrain

  • Oman

  • Kuwait

  • Jordan

  • Lebanon

  • Turkey
