Welcome To Arab Law Bureau

Arab Law Bureau has been operating in the Qatar market for a number of years and has grown to become one of Qatar’s premier law firms and is consistently ranked as a leading Qatari law firm by both Chambers & Partners and Legal 500.

The firm was the first legal practice to register with the Qatar Financial Centre as a limited liability partnership.

Over the years the firm has developed strong relationships with the Qatari authorities. These relationships put the firm in a strong position to assist clients in establishing a presence in Qatar and maintaining good corporate governance once established. Collectively, the firm’s lawyers have a wealth of experience in other Middle Eastern jurisdictions and such an array of experience is an invaluable asset in navigating and often contributing to Qatar’s developing legal system. The firm’s familiarity and experience with the Qatari legal system has led to it being instructed by a number of government entities with the drafting of various legislative instruments, including decrees and decisions relating to foreign ownership of property in Qatar and the formation of companies by government agencies.

In early 2017, the firm made a strategic decision to venture into Jordan and will offer the full spectrum of legal services provided by the Qatar office.

Our objective is simple: to make doing business in Qatar easy for our clients and to help them achieve their commercial goals in a cost effective and efficient manner.

We are a relationship focused firm which gives us a better understanding of our clients businesses enabling us to provide practical solutions to complex legal problems.
