Service

International Cooperation Department

Our international practice acts for clients whose interests extend beyond Kuwait, and for foreign law firms requiring Kuwaiti counsel.

The firm maintains strategic relationships with trusted law firms across the GCC, the wider Middle East, Europe and Asia. Where a matter requires foreign law advice, we appoint and instruct local counsel, coordinate their work, and stand by the client’s side until the matter is concluded. The department advises on cross-border transactions and acquisitions, multi-jurisdictional disputes, and international arbitration.

The firm also acts as Kuwaiti counsel to international law firms and their clients, providing legal opinions on Kuwaiti legislation, conducting due diligence, advising on regulatory clearance, and conducting litigation and arbitration in Kuwait on their behalf.

Cross-border matters turn on timing, documentation and procedural requirements that differ between jurisdictions. The department manages that coordination and maintains a single point of contact for the client throughout.

Our lawyers and consultants advise in Arabic, English, French, Spanish, Italian, Hindi and Malayalam.
