UAE-based law firm Habib Al Mulla and Partners set a new milestone as it established its presence in Russia with the opening of an office in Moscow, becoming the first Arab law firm to do so.
This expansion comes within six months of the firm opening an office in Istanbul.
Renowned for its expertise in regional and international disputes and arbitration matters across diverse sectors, Habib Al Mulla and Partners has also demonstrated considerable legal success in multiple practice areas. The firm’s strategic move to enter the Russian market underscores its commitment to providing unparalleled legal services globally.
Gaining competitive advantage
The firm’s latest expansion will help service Emirati businesses and investments venturing into the Russian market and beyond. By being the first and only UAE legal firm in Russia, Habib Al Mulla and Partners aims to gain a competitive advantage and establish itself as a trusted advisor.
“We are committed to serving outbound investments from the emirates and our clients with regional and international business interests. We will join them in jurisdictions that they require and work with them to best serve their interests. In line with the UAE leadership’s vision of expanding Emirati companies to global markets, we are proud to be a truly Emirati law firm that is going international,” said Dr. Habib Al Mulla, Founder of Habib Al Mulla and Partners.
The law firm’s expansion builds on the strategic ties between the UAE and Russia across all business fronts, with a specific focus on cooperation and collaboration in the legal sector. The launch of the Moscow office will particularly help clients in the areas of commercial law, investment law, and dispute resolution, the firm said.
The firm will also carry out new hires through workshops, exchange programs and training sessions, thus contributing positively to the legal landscape in Russia and the broader Eurasian region.
