Lawyers from across the Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP network have advised on Middle East-based matters for decades. We have been in the region for the last 10 years and, in 2008, opened our Abu Dhabi office in response to strong client demand. Most recently, we relocated to Abu Dhabi Global Market Square, the heart of Abu Dhabi’s new central business district.
The Abu Dhabi office includes lawyers who have a wide breadth of experience in fields that range from traditional strengths such as corporate and public policy to 21st-century concentrations such as climate change, intellectual property, cybersecurity, investment funds, information technology and national security. Our clients include both public and private sector entities from a diverse range of industries such as oil and gas, power, renewable energy, infrastructure, mining and metals, financial services, communications and technology, and consumer goods and services. The firm advises on matters as diverse as public policy, cybersecurity, trade, investigations, dispute resolution, banking and finance, corporate transactions, investment funds and project development activities in both mature and emerging markets.
