Founder’s Message

The role of a lawyer is not merely to represent his client in the court. It goes far more and much deeper by understanding the client’s concerns, weighing the pros and cons of any action, building a practical, efficient and coastwise strategy.

Four decades of excellence, a future of limitless possibilities.

As we celebrate over four decades of excellence in legal services and observe the dynamic evolution of business within the UAE, I reflect with immense pride on our journey and achievements at Habib Al Mulla and Partners. From our pioneering beginnings in 1984 to our pivotal role in today’s global business landscape, our commitment has steadfastly remained—to facilitate seamless business ventures and navigate the intricate legal terrain of the UAE.

Throughout the years, we have been at the forefront, assisting both local and international clients to establish and expand their operations amidst evolving economic climates. Our firm’s dedication has significantly contributed to the modernization of the UAE’s legal framework, ensuring it supports global commerce while honoring our cherished cultural and religious principles.

The economic landscape of the UAE, once predominantly fueled by oil, has transformed remarkably. Today, we boast a diversified economy that leads the Gulf Cooperation Council in innovation and development across various sectors, including real estate, finance, trade, and tourism. This growth is reflected not only in the thriving metropolises of Dubai and Abu Dhabi but also in our substantial economic indices on both regional and global scales.

In recognition of the increasing importance of regional integration and global reach, we have expanded our footprint beyond the UAE. We are proud to announce the opening of new offices in Istanbul and Moscow. These strategic locations will enable us to better serve our clients by providing on-the-ground legal expertise and facilitating smoother cross-border transactions and operations. Our presence in these vibrant cities underscores our commitment to supporting our clients’ ambitions in key markets across the region and beyond.

Our philosophy extends beyond traditional legal representation. We immerse ourselves in understanding our clients’ ambitions, crafting strategies that are not only pragmatic and cost-effective but also aligned with their objectives. This empathetic approach has cemented our reputation as not just advisors but as partners in our clients’ successes.

As we continue to navigate the future, our pledge remains unchanged. We are dedicated to achieving excellence, embracing challenges as opportunities, and contributing to the UAE’s ongoing prosperity. With a steadfast commitment to our clients and our nation, we look forward to fostering the next phase of growth and innovation.

Thank you for placing your trust in Habib Al Mulla and Partners. Together, we will continue to set benchmarks in the legal industry and contribute to the remarkable story of the UAE.

Dr. Habib Al Mulla
