In 2003, Al Tamimi & Company became the first law firm in the GCC region to establish a dedicated Property practice. We continue to lead the field into 2009, earning a Band 1 ranking from both Chambers Global and Legal 500. Chambers describes our Property practice as “a force to be reckoned with…a dominant player in this sector” whilst Legal 500 states, “On the real estate front, the firm continues to take on prominent roles on Dubai’s highest-profile developments…”. 

Our reputation for influencing and shaping the rapidly developing area of property practice in the UAE was established through our work on the Jumeirah Beach Residence project in 2002. Through this project, we introduced the concepts of “Master Community Declaration” and “Constitution of Co-Owners’ Association”, which although unique at the time now form the basis for several of the major real estate developments in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Doha.  We continue to be regularly consulted by the Dubai Land Department, the Real Estate Regulatory Agency (RERA) in Dubai and the Department of Municipal Affairs in Abu Dhabi on the content and drafting of new property laws and regulations. Our central involvement in the development of the legal framework ensures that we are able to give our clients accurate and up-to-date legal advice which is second to none. 

With an initial focus on Dubai, the Property practice now extends to our Abu Dhabi, Doha, Riyadh and Amman offices. We have a team of dedicated property lawyers, with a good mix of western and regional qualifications, contentious and non-contentious experience and bi-lingual capability. 

The breadth and depth of our Property practice's experience enables it to assist with all aspects of real estate legal practice, including the following:

  • Legislative and regulatory issues
  • Setting up and licensing real estate businesses
  • Financing and securities
  • Real estate funds and REITS
  • Strata and Mixed Use Schemes
  • Land acquisition and development, including Joint Ventures
  • Property dispute resolution, including Court Litigation and local and international Arbitration.
  • Commercial property transactions
  • Hotel and leisure development and management
  • Long term teases - residential, commercial and retail
  • Short term tenancies - residential, commercial and retail
  • General landlord and tenant advice, including litigation and disputes
