Firm announces association with Middle Eastern law firm Al-Soaib
Charles Russell LLP has announced a formal association with Middle Eastern law firm Al-Soaib, further bolstering its offering across the region.
Established in 1995, Al-Soaib, one of Saudi Arabia’s leading independent law firms, has offices in Riyadh and Al Khobar, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The association plays a key role in Charles Russell’s expansion across the wider Gulf region, where the firm has established offices in Bahrain and Qatar. Charles Russell has enjoyed working with Al-Soaib on international and cross-border matters with a focus on corporate & commercial, banking & finance, litigation and intellectual property issues.
“The formalising of our relationship with Al-Soaib Law Firm further demonstrates our commitment to the region,” says Patrick Gearon, head of Charles Russell’s Bahrain office. “Our story in the Middle East is one of growth, with over 20 lawyers now based in Bahrain and a team now also based in our new offices in Doha, a presence in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is a natural next step and we are delighted to be able to team up with our friends at Al-Soaib.”
“We were actively looking for ways to team up with experienced legal experts from around the world” comments Mohammad Hamad Al-Soaib, chairman of Al-Soaib Law Firm. “By exposing clients to multiple layers worldwide, we have formed a network of connections between our clients and our firm which benefits clients through building bridges between cultures. We believe that formalising our long-standing business association with Charles Russell will allow us to provide the highest levels of quality for our clients.”
