Frequently asked questions
Before we begin.
We are expanding our technology business to the UAE. What should we prepare?
Prepare a clear picture of your product, customers, data flows and who owns the intellectual property. Those points shape the entity, contract and data protection discussion for the UAE.
Do sanctions affect whether you can act for me?
They can. Before agreeing any engagement we carry out appropriate checks on the parties and the transaction, and some matters may fall outside what we can accept. Raise any concerns openly at the start.
Can I start the conversation from Belarus?
Yes. Use the enquiry form to introduce yourself, the people or businesses involved and what you want to achieve, wherever you are in Belarus or the UAE. Keep it brief and avoid confidential documents until an engagement is agreed. An enquiry does not create a lawyer-client relationship.
Do you advise on the law of Belarus?
Our practice is based in Dubai. Where your matter also involves the law of Belarus, we will say so early and discuss coordinating with appropriately qualified advisers there.
