Supporting your business in the Middle East

Gateley Middle East specialises in advising on M&A, corporate advisory and restructuring, corporate real estate, employment and dispute resolution across the region. Our lawyers are based in Dubai and have a deep understanding of the law in the region.

This, allied to the firm’s extensive market knowledge across various industry sectors, business and government entities within the Middle East, gives us the ability to devise solutions that are legally sound and, just as important, practical and commercially focused.

Gateley Legal was the first UK commercial law firm to list on the London Stock Exchange in 2015. We currently have 28 offices including in major commercial hubs across the UK and 2 international offices in Dubai and Hong Kong, operating with a ‘one firm’ ethos to provide advice to clients as a unified 1,500+ strong team across a variety of sectors.
