OUR STORY

In 1993, Mr. Sam Bayat set up a boutique law practice in Dubai to promote Canada as a destination of choice for investment and/or migration. The firm, then known as “Canadian Legal Services”, was the first Canadian law firm in the GCC.

Today, Bayat Legal Services has an international presence, working with a vast network of legal professionals and trade consultants. Our core expertise is corporate migration, economic citizenship, investments, and tax planning.

Our founder, who migrated from the Middle East to Canada in the early 70s, is a Quebec (Canadian) licensed attorney, a published author, and a lecturer experienced in international law. Mr. Bayat was the former president of the Canadian bar association’s international section in Quebec.
