Practice
Corporate and private client advisory with serious defence capability. Every matter at partner level.
Advisory across the full commercial lifecycle for technology companies, digital asset businesses, and international enterprises. Market entry, structuring, shareholder arrangements, and cross-border dispute resolution.
Learn more →Onshore and free zone licensing. Digital asset regulation under VARA, SCA, and FSRA frameworks. Guiding international businesses from concept to compliant operation — and responding when regulators come calling.
Learn more →Embedded legal support for startups, SMEs, and technology firms. Partner-level involvement without the permanent headcount — and the breadth to spot risks that a purely commercial lawyer would miss.
Learn more →Corporate governance documentation, contract drafting, notarisation, and wills. Every document drafted to a standard that assumes it will be tested — because in our experience, it will be.
Learn more →International and UAE family law for expat clients. Divorce, custody, guardianship, and cross-border enforcement. Matters we handle with discretion — and never discuss, list, or publicise.
Learn more →Commercial and residential property across Dubai. Off-plan disputes, developer claims, tenancy matters, RERA proceedings — and the more complex end where property meets fraud.
Learn more →We don't wait for the prosecution to set the agenda. Our founding team understands investigations from every angle — because we've operated on both sides of the process. 24/7 emergency response.
Learn more →In the UAE, defamation is criminal. We trace anonymous sources, build evidential cases, and pursue removal through legal channels — with an investigative capability most reputation firms cannot match.
Learn more →Genuine technical expertise in cryptography and digital evidence within the founding team — not outsourced. We led the cases that define this area.
Learn more →Confiscation defence, restraint order challenges, and cross-border asset tracing. Including defence against foreign asset claims targeting non-national UAE residents.
Learn more →Red Notice challenges, extradition defence, and cross-border criminal exposure. We don't just respond to proceedings — we engage proactively to resolve matters before they escalate.
Learn more →We handle a carefully selected range of matters beyond our core practice. If your situation demands precision and discretion, we should talk.
Private enquiry →The Firm
Built for international businesses and the individuals behind them. We provide the corporate, regulatory, and private client advisory that operating in the UAE demands — with a serious defence capability that most commercial firms cannot offer.
Our founding partners bring three distinct disciplines and over five decades of combined experience to every engagement: senior UAE law enforcement leadership, including service as a Brigadier General heading Dubai Police investigation sections; internationally recognised courtroom expertise in cryptography, digital evidence, and high-stakes advocacy; and over two decades of specialist solicitor practice in serious and financial crime across the UK's highest courts.
This combination means we advise on commercial structuring, regulatory compliance, and corporate strategy with the same precision we bring to defending the most serious criminal allegations. Clients come to us because they need a firm that understands risk from every angle — regulatory, reputational, and personal.
We are structured to respond rapidly. Arrests, investigations, regulatory actions, or reputational threats — direct partner-level involvement from the outset, with strict confidentiality protocols across every matter.
Our practice is based in Dubai with international reach across the UK, Europe, and the wider Middle East.
