Frequently asked questions
Before we begin.
Our family business is moving operations to Dubai. What should we look at first?
Start with what is moving and what is staying: assets, contracts, employees and ownership. A clear inventory helps identify the agreements and structures that need attention.
Are there special considerations for matters connected with Sudan?
Cross-border matters may involve sanctions, banking and compliance checks. We review these at the outset, before agreeing any engagement, and may be unable to assist with some matters.
Can I start the conversation from Sudan?
Yes. Use the enquiry form to introduce yourself, the people or businesses involved and what you want to achieve, wherever you are in Sudan 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 Sudan?
Our practice is based in Dubai. Where your matter also involves the law of Sudan, we will say so early and discuss coordinating with appropriately qualified advisers there.
