Expertise

Six sectors, one standard of counsel.

We take instructions only where we have real depth. Below is where that depth lives — and the transactions each practice handles day to day.

Financial Services

DFSA and onshore licensing, banking and payments structures, and regulatory advice for firms operating in and around the DIFC.

  • DFSA licensing
  • Banking & payments
  • Regulatory advisory

Real Estate & Hospitality

Acquisitions, developments, and hotel-management agreements — from a single tower to a mixed-use masterplan across the Emirates.

  • Development & acquisition
  • Hotel management
  • Joint ventures

Energy & Infrastructure

Project finance, power-purchase agreements and concession arrangements for the assets that keep the region running.

  • Project finance
  • Power-purchase agreements
  • Concessions

Technology & Venture

Founders and investors from first cheque to exit — term sheets, priced rounds, cap-table clean-ups and the eventual sale.

  • Venture rounds
  • Cap-table structuring
  • Exits & M&A

Private Capital & Funds

Fund formation, GP/LP negotiations and private-equity acquisitions — structured for the DIFC, ADGM or offshore as the mandate requires.

  • Fund formation
  • GP/LP terms
  • PE acquisitions

Retail & Consumer

Master franchising, distribution networks and consumer-brand M&A across the GCC, structured to scale without renegotiation.

  • Master franchising
  • Distribution
  • Consumer M&A

How we engage

A deliberate way of working.

Four steps, no surprises. You know the partner, the scope and the number before the work begins.

01

Introduction

A confidential conversation with the partner who would lead. No juniors, no pitch team — the person you would actually work with.

02

Scope & terms

A short engagement letter with a fixed scope and a fee you agree before we start. Predictable by design.

03

Execution

We run the transaction — drafting, negotiating, and closing — with the partner on every material call.

04

Close & beyond

We close, hand over clean documents, and stay reachable for the questions that always follow a deal.

Considering a transaction?

A first conversation with a partner is confidential and carries no obligation. Tell us the shape of it.
