DIFC Courts

A very interesting local development in Dubai is the establishment of the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) Court. This required an amendment to the Constitution of the UAE because the court falls outside of the federal court system. It also required UAE civil laws to be excluded and its own legal system to be created.

The DIFC Court operates on the basis of the Common Law, rather than the Civil Law, the language of the courts is English, and it has its own set of Procedural Rules.

Originally, the jurisdiction of the DIFC Courts was limited to the geographical area of the DIFC. However, since November 2011, the DIFC Courts can hear commercial disputes between any parties which have written the DIFC Courts into their mutual contracts, or which jointly agree to use the DIFC Courts post-dispute.

Our Litigation Arbitration Lawyers in Dubai are well versed in the DIFC laws and legal system, which is quite different from the Dubai and UAE legal system, and based on Common Law, rather than the Civil Law. We have represented our clients in complex litigation cases within the DIFC and have the right of audience before the DIFC courts.

Arbitration

Arbitration has gradually become a popular dispute resolution mode in many jurisdictions, including the UAE. This is due to the import of customary business practice in the UAE and the fact that arbitration allows national and non-national partnerships greater room to maneuver by lending weight to their intentions in Contracts as opposed to strictly applying the Law.

We have a team of Expert Lawyers well versed in arbitration and arbitration proceedings. Excellence is our minimum standard and we apply this maxim across all our legal practices, especially arbitration.
