Atwan Global Law Firm - Atwan Attorneys

Corporate & Commercial

Mohammad Atwan is a Corporate and Commercial Associate at the firm, with deep knowledge of Jordanian corporate law. He works directly with all the firm’s clients on their corporate matters, including capital restructuring, company registration, and liquidation.

Having completed his sixth year working closely with the Managing Partner on nearly all corporate matters, we believe Mohammad plays a prominent role in the firm’s Corporate Department.

Mohammad’s role in investment deals primarily includes coordinating the legal structure of transactions, drafting all required resolutions, and representing the parties before the Companies Control Department in Jordan. He helps structure each deal in a way that aligns with both the investor’s or client’s goals and the applicable regulatory framework in Jordan. This often involves determining the best approach to secure shareholder rights in light of any restrictions under Jordanian law.

Given that Jordan has specific legislation governing investments, Mohammad ensures compliance with all relevant laws and tailors the execution documents to guarantee the enforceability of the investment documentation in Jordan. Once the documents are tailored, reviewed, and approved, Mohammad’s final step is to ensure all necessary filings are completed with the Companies Control Department, as well as any other relevant regulatory authorities. This may include negotiating different versions of the Memorandum and Articles of Association with the Companies Control Department, along with submitting all supporting documents related to the transaction, such as board and shareholder resolutions.
