Announcement - New member of The Lawyer Network in UAE

I represent clients on a wide variety of corporate transactions, projects, regulatory and commercial matters.  I advise on M&A transactions, joint ventures, corporate structuring and reorganizations, pre-dispute strategy and a wide range of commercial contracts.  I counsel clients doing business across the Middle East, Africa, Central Asia, and South East Asia.  The work often involves advice on foreign direct investment, in conjunction with local counsel when necessary, and I have worked on several novel projects in frontier markets. My extensive oil and gas sector experience has been recognised by several independent legal directories, such as Chambers & Partners and Who’s Who Legal. The other sectors in which I have worked include: real estate, mining, power, education, hospitality, FMCG and sports.  I have also spent time in-house on secondment.  This variety of experience has provided me with a broad commercial perspective on matters. I am an English qualified solicitor and have practised at three of the world’s premier energy firms: Baker Botts, Fulbright & Jaworski and Dentons.  I worked for international law firms in London and Cairo before moving to Dubai full time in 2005.
