Overview
The requirement that foreign law firms operate in alliance with a local Saudi firm led to a number of key developments for the market in 2010. January saw White & Case LLP split from its longstanding alliance with Mohammed Al-Sheikh’s local practice and Al-Sheikh quickly formed an association with Latham & Watkins LLP. With Saudi Aramco such an important client for White & Case LLP, both locally and internationally, in November the firm announced a tie-up with Waleed N Al-Nuwaiser, who split from his association with Gide Loyrette Nouel following that firm’s exit from the Middle East. In other market developments, the alliance of Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer LLP in association with the Law Firm of Salah Al-Hejailan was formalised.
