Success Stories: Big Win for Landowners Our team was able to achieve a significant win in a case involving evasion of contractual obligations by a bank that adversely affected landowner rights.   The UAE Court has ruled in favour of a landowner whose construction project was being stalled due to a local bank’s refusal to provide the necessary endorsement to the Abu Dhabi municipality to approve construction permits. The project was unduly delayed due to the actions of the bank despite the landowner meeting contractual and regulatory requirements, resulting in major financial setbacks for the landowner. After a three-month legal battle led by our team, the Court has directed the bank to furnish the necessary documents to the municipality, thus allowing the project to proceed. The ruling is an important triumph for landowners and investors in the UAE who can now be assured that financial institutions adhere to contractual commitments, especially when they impact property development rights.

ECM lawyers - have you considered the Middle East? We have seen a huge surge of new instructions across the UAE and KSA for lawyers who have strong ECM experience, with both UK firms and elite US firms. Candidates of all levels are in high demand, as long as they have some IPO experience and are eager to build upon this. The second quarter of this year saw 14 IPOs registered in the MENA region, up 45% from the same period last year. The remainder of 2024 is set to be just as active, with 16 private entities and 7 funds across a range of industries planning to list on MENA exchanges. In the face of global IPO activity declining in comparison to 2023, there has never been a more exciting time to be an ECM focused lawyer in the Middle East region. If you are an ECM focused lawyer and are interested to know what a career in the Middle East could look like for you, drop me a line for a confidential discussion about this - [email protected].

Happy to share our quick, practical guide on litigation funding in the UAE. It is on the rise, but relative to other regions, there is still a lack of awareness of its benefits and how to obtain it.
