Legal 500 Editorial commentary
Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
‘The team are very commercially minded and willing to engage on all matters to be relevant. The uniqueness of this team is their desire to share knowledge and pass on information, with excellent training sessions being provided to us, across all levels.’
‘Stand-out difference is that the lawyers are very knowledgable across the GCC, rather than focused on one geography which is typically the case with legal firms. This makes it easy to receive input across deals that are either listing in a different geography, or considering a dual-list.’
