Doha, Qatar: Charles Russell
LLP,
one of the premier full service law firms in the Middle East and a
leading international law firm in Bahrain, has expanded its operations
with a new office
in Qatar launched at a reception in Doha last night. The office will
provide clients with specialisms in the real estate, construction,
banking and sports sectors, advice and representation in litigation and
arbitration, advice on intellectual property in
the region, corporate work and private client counsel to serve the
Qatari and international community.
Qatar
has been one of the fastest growing economies in the world. According
to IMF, it has proved to be the most
resilient in the GCC region during the global recession, largely due to
government initiatives designed to spur the financial sector.
As
host nation of the 2022 FIFA World Cup, the Qatari Government has
announced plans to invest approximately USD
$225bn by 2016. World Cup related preparations are likely to reach an
estimated USD $80bn. The potential of Qatar’s growth story has attracted
a wealth of investors to the country. The increased activity will
generate numerous jobs and continues to help position
Qatar as a major global economic force.
Simon Green, Partner and Head of Qatar at Charles Russell
said: “I am delighted to announce that we have opened an office in
Qatar to serve our expanding client base in this important GCC market. A
key specialism of our Qatari office will be real estate development and
construction work where we offer our clients
some of the most experienced legal advisors in the region”
Patrick Gearon, Partner and Head of Middle East at Charles Russell
added:
