Whether you are operating in the private equity, finance, oil and gas, insurance, hospitality, healthcare, education or any other sector, our expert lawyers will leverage their local knowledge and contacts to ensure that your corporate interests are protected.

However, we understand only too well that knowing the law simply isn’t enough. That’s why our lawyers are immersed in the sectors in which they operate so that we can provide advice to you that is as commercially grounded as it is technically excellent.

Having worked on some of the most prominent national and international M&A deals in the Middle East, our team can help you with any aspect of buying or selling another company in the region or beyond. We can also help you with all the associated aspects of M&A such as government contracts, environmental law, real estate and employment.
