As the Middle East* navigates a period of economic diversification and regional collaboration, discerning companies are seeking legal partners who can navigate the evolving landscape. 

In the December 2024 issue, ALB is spotlighting a list of Firms to Watch for Middle East. These are firms that are small but are already making waves, and either challenging (or with the potential to challenge) much larger law firms for their share of the work.

While submissions are not absolutely necessary—we will combine our stock of industry knowledge with news reports, the general buzz around some firms and publicly available information to select some of the firms on the list—firms are still welcome to send in submissions for consideration.

Only firms with 10 partners or fewer will be considered.

The deadline for submissions is Friday, September 27. Please send submissions to bingqing.wang@thomsonreuters.com

 

*Algeria, Bahrain, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Tunisia, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, and Yemen.
