Litigation

Senior Legal Consultant

With over 25 years of legal experience, Afif is a distinguished dispute resolution specialist who has successfully represented clients in a broad range of complex civil, commercial, corporate, joint venture, family, labor, insolvency, criminal, and regulatory disputes. His practice spans litigation before national courts, specialized tribunals, and both domestic and international arbitration forums, earning a reputation for strategic thinking and effective advocacy.

A multilingual professional, Afif combines deep legal knowledge with a practical, client-centered approach. He advises on high-stakes litigation while actively exploring innovative and alternative dispute resolution mechanisms. Afif supports clients from project inception, identifying potential legal risks early and implementing preventive strategies to reduce the likelihood of disputes. When conflicts arise, he ensures that clients are equipped with top-tier legal advice and representation through every stage of litigation—from pre-trial strategy to final resolution.

Afif’s professional ethos is rooted in integrity and justice. He upholds the principle that a lawyer who loses defending the truth serves the legal profession with greater honor than one who wins by advocating dishonesty. For Afif, the law is not a commercial transaction but a noble pursuit of equity and fairness, where advocacy must always align with truth and ethical responsibility.
