Diversity/Community

We thrive on diversity at Zu’bi & Partners, Attorneys & Legal Consultants. Our team of lawyers are as diverse as our clients. They come from major international law firms and are members of local and international bar associations. Our lawyers are multicultural and multilingual. They understand the needs of our clients, and act not only as legal representatives but as trusted business advisors. All our lawyers are able to provide clients with clear, efficient advice based on a real understanding of the issues and the local laws in more than one language.

Our firm strives to cultivate a workplace where inclusiveness, mutual respect and professionalism are standard. It is our mission to build upon our 100 years old family history and commitment to law to diversity to foster an environment where people of all races, genders, religious affiliations and cultural heritage are equal and encouraged and inspired to fulfil their potential to grow within the firm and partner with clients. Half of our lawyers are women, and we have a good mix of local and non-Bahraini lawyers. As well as having many highly experienced Associates, we have historically nurtured local young lawyers, training them to international standards and giving them international exposure.

Client Testimonials

CLIENT: Ms. Rasha Belbaisi
COMPANY/FIRM: Bahrain Islamic Bank
TESTIMONIAL: “Our experience with Zu’bi and Partners has been outstanding. We approached the law firm in 2019 to advise on the acquisition of 87% of our shares by the National Bank of Bahrain. Mr. Naveen Thakur (Partner) and Mrs. Noor Al Taraif (Associate) gave this transaction all the time and attention needed to be successfully concluded. They reviewed, drafted, negotiated and advised on all relevant documentation, highlighted the red flags within, liaised with external financial advisors and board members and assisted in obtaining regulatory approvals to ensure that all the requirements under the Take Over, Merger and Acquisitions Module are met.

We highly recommend this firm for its knowledgeable, responsive and diverse team”.
