Qatar

Our Qatar office, in the Tornado Tower at the centre of Doha’s financial district, operates under the auspices of the Qatar Financial Centre. From our base here we combine local knowledge with an international perspective to effectively advise clients across the globe.

Key Contacts

Through many years of working with state-owned entities, oil and gas companies, large employers, contractors and supply chain businesses, we have built up in-depth knowledge and expertise, particularly in the Energy, Financial Services and Infrastructure sectors. Our lawyers have spent time in the private sector, worked for regulatory authorities or been in-house so that we understand the context of our client's business and can bring the benefit of our experience to bear on their projects, whatever type of legal advice is required.

We are well placed to advise on all aspects of regulatory and compliance work in the QFC, and particularly to provide a full service for the establishment and administration of funds. We also advise on all aspects from QFC Regulation - including local Data Protection, Anti Money Laundering and Employment regulations - through to dispute resolution.

Several local clients also make use of our expert Private Wealth team. They value the commercial approach we bring to their day to day requirements across professional and personal matters, married to the highest service standards and absolute discretion.

Our dedicated team of banking and finance lawyers in the Gulf Region includes senior civil law qualified banking and finance lawyers.  This combined knowledge enables us to truly grasp local legal concepts, for example the UAE and Qatari security law regime, and to guide our clients meaningfully through the maze of local legal risk akin to finance transactions.
