‘Arsalan Tariq is always reachable, responsive, and approachable, which is a crucial aspect of effective collaboration. He consistently goes the extra mile to ensure that communication is seamless and that the matters referred to them are addressed accurately and promptly.'
‘Sahil Taneja is an excellent legal professional. He is able to handle corporate mandates in a most efficient manner. He has broad experience, which sees him take the lead on M&A transactions, real estate projects, EPC contracts and governance issues. He is smart, experienced, well-spoken and commands the respect of senior management within our group.'
‘The corporate team at BSA Oman is first rate; they have advised us on a variety of corporate matters and transactions and are our go-to lawyers in Oman. What makes them stand out is that they have a subject matter specialist for every area of law. They provide sensible and practical advice in a timely fashion, and their knowledge of the Omani legal landscape is formidable.’
‘Sahil Taneja manages BSA's corporate practice. Sahil is evidently at ease when it comes to M&A mandates, even those as complex as the deal on which we worked together. He is quick on the uptake, commercially sound and knows the Omani legal framework inside-out. As a result, Sahil was able to take charge of a (then) very slow moving transaction and bring it to an expeditious conclusion, a large part of which is owed to his excellent communication and negotiation skills. ’
‘Sahil Taneja is a stand-out corporate lawyer who has practiced in Oman for over a decade - he is knowledgeable, pleasant, articulate and a great communicator, particularly when it comes to breaking down complex legal issues in a manner that is palatable to a business professional. ’
- 'Arsalan Tariq adds great value to the legal services provided by the firm and his deep knowledge and extensive experience make him a valuable asset in the books of any client. His attention to detail and desire to cater to clients' requests makes him a potent catalyst for the firm to reach its objectives.'
