Habib Al Mulla & Partners acts for an ever-growing client base across a litany of sectors and industries – most notably financial institutions. The group has also been steadily growing its tax litigation offering, and has overseen major wins against tax authorities that include market-first aspects. Practice heads Mohamed El Khatib, Amir Alkhaja, Mohamed El Baghdady and Ali Dakhlallah are key names for criminal and civil, banking and finance, and tax disputes. Gerry Rogers��s arrival from Galadari & Associates and Matthew Page’s arrival from Hadef & Partners LLC in 2023 add further strength. Tarek Saad left the firm.
