Whether you are structuring a property acquisition, negotiating a lease, or managing a dispute, our real estate lawyers and legal consultants in Dubai bring clarity, precision, and commercial focus to each transaction. We help clients structure deals, manage risk, and resolve challenges efficiently so they can proceed with confidence.
Commercial Leasing
We act for landlords and tenants in drafting, reviewing, and negotiating lease agreements across sectors, from office towers and retail centres to logistics hubs and industrial warehouses. Our leasing advice is tailored to align with your commercial goals, helping you maximise value and minimise legal exposure.
Zoning, Land Use, and Regulatory Compliance

Whether your project is in an urban free zone or a suburban residential district, we provide clear, practical guidance to help you avoid delays and regulatory pitfalls.

From site acquisition through to handover, we support developers and contractors across every phase of property development. Our lawyers draft and negotiate construction and consultancy agreements, advise on project structuring, and ensure compliance with local planning laws and construction regulations.

We advise on the purchase, sale, and lease of residential, commercial, and mixed-use properties across the UAE. Our team handles everything from due diligence and contract negotiation to title verification and closing. Whether acting for a single investor or a multinational developer, we ensure your transactions are completed with minimal risk and maximum efficiency.
Real Estate Financing
We support clients in securing funding for real estate ventures through conventional and alternative financing structures. Our services include drafting finance documents, negotiating with lenders, and ensuring transactions comply with UAE lending laws and regulatory frameworks.
