What the team is known for

Clyde & Co offers a well-established and formidable dispute resolution team which is widely regarded as a market leader in the Middle East. It has a large and highly skilled bench of disputes lawyers based across the region, with offices or associated offices in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the UAE. The team is very active in cross-border disputes, with a strong history in significant cases involving multiple, parallel jurisdictional proceedings. Particularly noted for its expertise in maritime and insurance disputes, the team also acts for clients on disputes against government entities and international organisations. The firm is equally experienced in major construction and media cases.

Notable practitioners

Dubai-based Mark Beswetherick has particular expertise handling professional liability defence cases, as well as regulatory investigations. "Mark is a phenomenal lawyer; he's the person to go to for insurance disputes."

Nassif BouMalhab leads the Middle East arbitration practice from his base in Dubai. He frequently represents clients in highly sensitive arbitration matters, with a particular emphasis on shareholder, contractual and banking disputes. "His main focus is arbitration and he is second to none when it comes to running high-value complex work."
