Cairo managing partner Mohamed Barakat is active on a variety of corporate matters, ranging from acquisitions to restructurings and general commercial and operational advice. His client roster includes several major real estate companies.

He is extremely smart, very pragmatic, quick in responding and can also anticipate the kind of questions you have in order to proactively address them.

I have had a really good experience working alongside Mohamed. His responsiveness and expertise are things to be highlighted.

Mohamed is a great attorney with both Middle East and US experience. He is aware of the new market trends and provides great advice.

His ability to communicate and advise Western companies on Egyptian matters is rare. He understands the issues we face and gets us the resolution we want.
