We have reaffirmed our position as the leading offshore law firm in the United Arab Emirates with outstanding results in the latest IFLR1000 rankings.

The firm continues to set the benchmark for excellence, earning top-tier firm recognition as well as multiple individual lawyer accolades.

The IFLR1000 rankings are widely regarded as one of the leading guides to the world’s top financial and corporate law firms, based on extensive research and client feedback. Our continued dominance in these rankings reflects its reputation for technical excellence, commercial insight, and exceptional client service.

In addition to firm-wide accolades, several of our lawyers have received individual recognition for their exceptional contributions to the legal industry. This includes partners Daniel Wood, Tom Cochrane and Ciaran Bohnacker, as well as senior counsels Johanna Hendry and Gareth Lond.

'Our consistent top-tier rankings in the UAE demonstrate our unwavering commitment to providing clients with world-class legal advice,' said Partner, Ciaran Bohnacker. 'We are proud to be the go-to offshore firm for complex financial and corporate work in the Middle East.'

This recognition rounds off another strong year for our Dubai team who this year have been awarded Chambers Middle East Offshore Law Firm of the Year and IFN's Best Offshore Finance Law firm of the Year. This is on top of receiving exceptional results in the Chambers and Legal 500 rankings.
