United Arab Emirates > Commercial, corporate and M&A

Dentons remains active in multiple sectors and is frequently instructed by local, regional and local clients on complex, multijurisdictional M&A, joint ventures, and commercial instructions. The practice has recently been strengthened through the arrival of Ross Barfoot and Stephen McKenna from Clyde & Co in February 2024, who both have a deep background in M&A and PE transactions, and the relocation of Nick Simpson from the firm’s Riyadh office in May 2024, who now leads the practice and brings strong capabilities in the real estate sector. Iain Black comes recommended for his corporate expertise.
