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.
How do we protect our brand in the UAE?
Registering trademarks in the UAE is usually an early step, alongside clear ownership terms in founder, employee and contractor agreements.
Can I start the conversation from Israel?
Yes. Use the enquiry form to introduce yourself, the people or businesses involved and what you want to achieve, wherever you are in Israel 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 Israel?
Our practice is based in Dubai. Where your matter also involves the law of Israel, we will say so early and discuss coordinating with appropriately qualified advisers there.
