Jean Baroudi brings over 30 years of distinguished experience, and has served as the Managing Partner of Baroudi & Associates since 2000. While the firm has long been regarded as a pillar of the Lebanese legal market since its establishment in 1912, it has flourished under Jean’s leadership, expanding its footprint, and reinforcing its position in complex litigation and high-stakes arbitration. Jean has also advised on some of the most sophisticated transactions and regulatory developments in the country, spanning M&A, project finance, joint ventures, corporate structuring, commercial contracts, capital markets, and foreign direct investment.
His ability to navigate complex corporate mandates, particularly those with cross-border dimensions, has made him a trusted advisor to multinational corporations, private equity funds, financial institutions, and sovereign entities. His extensive network and deep sectoral knowledge allow him to anticipate risks, structure innovative solutions, and guide clients with strategic clarity and commercial insight. Whether structuring multimillion-dollar acquisitions or advising on regulatory compliance frameworks, Jean consistently delivers results that exceed client expectations.
Jean is also renowned for his role in resolving Lebanon’s most sensitive and high-value disputes, where his diplomacy, network, and reputation make him a key figure in facilitating high-figures settlements and outcomes of international importance. Jean is widely regarded by peers as a market leader and is frequently consulted on the most complex legal challenges in the country.
Jean’s experience is also international in scope. Between 1997 and 2001, he was licensed by the Lebanese regulatory authority to conduct reinsurance operations on behalf of Lloyd’s of London and Lloyd’s underwriters.
