Our Dubai office, established in 2009, supports clients doing business in the
United Arab Emirates (UAE), the wider Middle East and North Africa (MENA)
region, and beyond by helping to meet their legal, corporate, commercial, and
regulatory needs in pursuit of their key objectives. Our Dubai-based lawyers
provide advice on all aspects of onshore UAE law and practice, including
retention and supervision of local lawyers in the Dubai and UAE courts, as well
as the laws and regulations applicable in the UAE free zones—including the
Dubai International Financial Centre and Abu Dhabi Global Market. Our legal team
comprises civil and common law qualified lawyers with full bilingual English and
Arabic capability, in order to seamlessly advise clients across a wide variety
of situations.
The UAE’s continued commitment to infrastructure development and position
within the financial services sector make it an important location for our firm.
Further, its proximity to Europe, Africa, and Asia enhances the strength of its
international trading relationships.
The focuses of our Dubai office are dispute resolution (including arbitration),
insurance coverage, a broad spectrum of commercial and corporate matters
(including mergers and acquisitions, private equity, and venture capital
investments), capital markets, investment funds, financial services regulatory
advice, banking and finance, and employment. The office also works closely with
our firmwide Islamic Finance group.
