About

Dentons is the world’s largest law firm. Our global team builds agile, tailored solutions to meet the local, national and global needs of private and public clients of all sizes all over the world. We are the first truly polycentric global law firm and our structure affords flexibility in responding to client business needs wherever in the world they arise.

Our presence in the Middle East is among the largest of any international law firm and spans the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Jordan, Lebanon and Egypt and our offices collaborate closely both across the region and internationally. With over 50 years of experience in these markets, our long-standing relationships with government officials, financial institutions and other intermediaries provide a strategic advantage for our clients.

Dentons has been operating in the UAE since 1968, when our Abu Dhabi office was established, and has seen the region develop over the years. Our Dubai office was established in 1969 and has wide experience across all of our areas of practice. The two offices cooperate closely to provide regional and international clients with the benefits of a fully integrated practice in the United Arab Emirates. The firm has been involved in landmark events, with Dentons’ lawyers acting as counsel to the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan and helping to draft the treaty that united the Emirates.

Clients benefit from our unrivalled understanding of the legal and business environment gained from both our unique experience in helping to shape the legal and regulatory landscape of the UAE, as well as our long-standing relationships with local business communities and governments.
