(Leading partners)A firm praised for its ‘excellent knowledge of local markets, pragmatism, and an all-round very knowledgeable team’, Akin‘s UAE team acts as a core component of a wider international practice that adeptly advises domestic and global clients on sanctions, trade compliance and export controls. Group heads Mahmoud Fadlallah and Lauren Talerman are ‘outstanding’ and ‘demonstrate exceptional depth of knowledge’ across the full range of white collar investigations and compliance instructions, with the former particularly well-regarded for his understanding of US sanctions and export-control regulations and the latter for her work with various US public bodies and agencies.
