Meysan Partners

Founded in 2015, Meysan is an innovative and ambitious international law firm, bringing together leading legal experts from the Middle East and the UK to serve clients across these regions and beyond. With a strategic focus on delivering tailored legal solutions, Meysan has quickly risen to prominence as a trusted advisor on complex legal matters.

Our team comprises over 60 highly skilled lawyers, specializing in key areas including corporate and finance law, competition and regulatory matters, and dispute resolution. Meysan has established itself as the leading law firm in Kuwait for mergers and acquisitions (M&A), advising on more transactions by value than any other firm in the region. Over the past seven years, we have successfully completed more than 30 deals, exceeding a total value of USD 30 billion.

Meysan is widely regarded as the most respected law firm in Kuwait, offering unmatched bench strength and a comprehensive range of partner expertise. Renowned for handling both domestic and international matters, our reputation is built on an exceptional track record of success and the trust of our distinguished clients. Meysan is a leading advisor on corporate financings and capital markets transactions, working across equity, debt, and hybrid instruments. We have pioneered numerous market-first innovations, further solidifying our position as a market leader.

Our boutique approach is central to our ethos. By selectively limiting the number and type of matters we undertake, we ensure an unwavering focus on high-value work. With a lower partner-to-associate ratio, our clients benefit from hands-on partner attention and a service model that prioritizes excellence and precision.

Meysan’s client base includes some of the largest blue-chip companies in Kuwait and the Middle East, multinational corporations, international financial institutions, sovereign governments, prominent family groups, and high-net-worth individuals.

Over the years, Meysan has garnered numerous prestigious awards, underscoring our commitment to excellence. Highlights include:

• M&A Deal of the Year (2022): Advising on DSV Panalpina’s USD 4.1 billion acquisition of Agility’s Global Integrated Logistics Business—the largest private M&A transaction in the GCC that year.
• Kuwait Law Firm of the Year: Recognized at the Oath Middle East Legal Awards (2017) and the Middle East Legal Awards (2024).
