TESTIMONIAL: I am writing today to endorse a highly suitable individual, Mr. Waleed Al-Hossayen. I have known and worked with him for many years as part of his job with the Law Firm of Salah Al-Hejailan. I have always found him efficient and unfailingly punctual. He supported in number of complex cases before the Saudi courts, which is not an easy job, as it requires a deep knowledge of the requirements of the Shariah Law, in addition to the legal and business requirements in Saudi Arabia. I have seen him resolve conflicts and handle difficult situations with remarkable patience and admirable tact.

COMPANY/FIRM: British International School – Riyadh

TESTIMONIAL: The British International School Riyadh has engaged the services of the Law Firm of Salah Al-Hejailan over many years. The ongoing engagement of Salah Al-Hejailan over a long period of time is due to the high-quality service we have been provided. They have supported us with a range of legal services and have always been responsive, supportive and client focused. No job has been too big or too small and where necessary they have partnered us with specialists to support specific legal needs. We are very happy with their professionalism and timely response when supporting our legal needs.


Our firm is a diverse and inclusive workplace, with employees from multi-cultural backgrounds, whom we encourage and support to create a collegial working environment in which all can flourish.

We have a long-standing track record of mentoring Saudi law school undergraduates seeking to develop and enhance their legal knowledge, skills and abilities, in support of the Saudi universities’ cooperative education programme, some of whom have gone on to create their own successful practices.

Our law firm was amongst the first to employ female law school graduates when the Saudi government allowed women to work in the legal profession. We did so with a simple vision: to empower and support women to achieve professional and personal success.
