Commercial Law.
Commercial relationships, supplier and shareholder disputes, restructurings, and contentious matters before the U.A.E. and DIFC courts.
Approach
Commerce in the United Arab Emirates is built on relationships — and on the contracts that govern them when those relationships are tested. The firm represents claimants and defendants in commercial disputes large and small, in the courts of the United Arab Emirates and before the DIFC Courts where appropriate.
Engagements
- Supplier and distribution disputes
- Shareholder, JV and partnership disputes

- Construction, EPC and contractor disputes
- Insolvency and corporate restructuring
- Enforcement of foreign judgments and arbitral awards
- DIFC Courts and onshore courts representation
Forum
Where the choice of forum is material, the firm advises on the strategic and procedural differences between the onshore U.A.E. civil-law system and the DIFC common-law jurisdiction — and litigates competently in both.
