LONDON LEGAL — ABU DHABI
Services
Legal support for company matters, commercial arrangements, contracts and day-to-day business requirements.
Practice overview
Businesses need a legal structure that supports the way they actually operate. We advise on commercial arrangements, company documentation and the contracts that define relationships with shareholders, suppliers, customers and other counterparties.
Support extends from the legal review of a proposed business to drafting and revising the documents used in day-to-day operations. We distinguish the legal work from licensing and administrative approvals, which remain subject to the relevant authority’s requirements.
Services in detail
A closer look at the services within this practice and the work each one involves.
We translate an agreed commercial arrangement into clear contractual obligations. Review covers scope, payment, delivery, liability, termination and dispute resolution, with revisions explained so the client can understand what each clause means in practice.
We help review the proposed legal structure, shareholder arrangements and incorporation documents. The advice takes account of the intended activity and ownership arrangements; the licence and approvals are issued by the competent authorities.
The choice of a free zone should reflect the activity, ownership structure and operating requirements. We review the legal documentation and contractual implications of the proposed setup, alongside the rules of the selected free-zone authority.
Ongoing company work may involve shareholder decisions, commercial agreements, internal delegations and changes to existing arrangements. We support the review and documentation of those decisions so that responsibilities and approvals are easier to follow.
Scope of work
Before the consultation
Prepare the records you have for review. Do not send sensitive documents in the initial form; agree a suitable sharing channel with the office.
Our process
Every matter is different, but the work follows a disciplined sequence that connects the facts, documents and objective to the next practical step.
