QATAR
Over the course of its twenty-year history, Al Sulaiti Law Firm has built a reputation as one of Qatar’s most prominent and reputable firms. Providing a wide range of services from simple legal services to more complex, multi-jurisdictional matters, we are dedicated to protecting and serving the interests of our clients.
Our industry expertise includes but is not limited to: Civil and Criminal Litigation, ADR, Construction, Energy, Corporate, Commercial, Intellectual Property, Media and Telecommunications, Employment, Banking and Finance and Tax. We handle a range of high-value and complex disputes representing high end and prominent clients, one of our primary objectives is to resolve our clients’ disputes in a timely and efficient manner with as little disruption to their business as possible.
Qatar adheres to the civil code, a legal system common to most Middle Eastern countries. The Qatari constitution strives to create an independent judiciary, which has been further strengthened through the Judicial Authority Law [Law No.10 of 2003] (the “Judicial Authority Law”) which provides in article 2 “The independence of the judiciary shall be guaranteed and no inappropriate or unwarranted interference with the judicial process is permissible.” Innovation lies at the core of the Qatari legal system. There is a continuous effort on the part of Qatar to develop its legal and judicial sectors. In the recent past, the court systems have all been digitalized to ensure that they are using the most innovative methods to speed up the judicial process, protect data privacy, and ensure that justice is available to all.
