Stephany Malhame

Stephany advises financial institutions, corporates, and stakeholders on contentious and non-contentious restructuring matters, including distressed debt enforcement, cross-border recovery strategies, shareholder disputes arising in insolvency contexts, and regulatory aspects of financial distress. Her practice spans multi-jurisdictional mandates involving the UAE, Qatar, Lebanon, and other regional forums.

She has extensive experience acting in high-value commercial and banking litigation before the Dubai Courts and the Qatar Financial Centre Courts, as well as advising on insolvency-related disputes involving financial institutions and corporate entities.

This combination of private practice and in-house experience enables her to provide commercially focused advice in distressed and restructuring situations.
