Questions we are asked

Why Choose the firm for Contract Drafting in UAE?

Choosing the right legal partner is essential for creating effective and enforceable contracts. the firm stands out for several reasons:

What does a corporate legal advisor do in the UAE?

A corporate legal advisor provides legal guidance on company formation, corporate governance, contracts, transactions, compliance, and dispute resolution.

Do I need a corporate legal advisor to start a business in Dubai?

While not mandatory, hiring a corporate legal advisor ensures compliance with UAE laws and helps avoid potential legal risks.

How can a corporate legal advisor help with business disputes?

They advise on the position, negotiate settlements, draft the agreements that record them, and prepare the file where a matter has to go further.

Can a corporate legal advisor assist with mergers and acquisitions?

Yes, they conduct due diligence, draft agreements, structure transactions, and advise on legal risks and compliance.

What are the benefits of hiring a corporate legal advisor for ongoing business operations?

They ensure regulatory compliance, protect corporate assets, handle employment and contractual matters, and provide proactive legal strategies for growth.

Can a contract in the UAE be governed by foreign law?

Parties often choose a governing law, and the choice is generally respected in commercial matters, but it is not unlimited. Certain provisions of UAE law apply regardless of what the contract says, particularly in employment, agency and real estate. Choosing a foreign law without checking this is a common and expensive mistake.

Does a contract need to be in Arabic to be enforceable?

A contract in English can be valid. If it is put before the UAE courts it will need to be translated by a legal translator, and the Arabic version is what the court works from. Where a matter is likely to end up in the local courts, we prepare a bilingual document so the meaning is settled at the outset and not in translation later.
