Dubai

In collaboration with the lawyers at Afridi & Angell, we provide legal services that reflect local practices and standards. Afridi & Angell, where our lawyers are seconded, was established in 1975 shortly after the establishment of the United Arab Emirates. The firm operates four offices across Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and Sharjah. The UAE has a federal legal system, meaning each of the seven emirates enforces distinct laws. Our presence in three emirates allows us to offer broad support throughout the region.

Afridi & Angell includes lawyers with decades of experience in the UAE and deep familiarity with legal practices across the Middle East. The makeup of lawyers in these offices reflects the diverse range of nationalities in the UAE.  Arabic-speaking lawyers and staff also assist with communication and representation before UAE authorities and in its courts.

Similar to Nishimura & Asahi, Afridi & Angell is a member firm of Lex Mundi, a global network of leading law firms. Through this network, Afridi & Angell  collaborates with other top-tier law firms around the world. 
In addition to work in the UAE, the firm also focuses on legal matters related to Pakistan, Iran, Sudan, and Canada.
