Simmons & Simmons celebrates 30 years in the UAE
Simmons & Simmons celebrates the 30th anniversary of the establishment of its Dubai office, an important milestone for the firm. Its UAE footprint continues to evolve as the recent expansion of its office spaces proves. With an actively growing team across all practice areas, the office now counts 27 professional lawyers, confirming the city’s importance for Simmons’s global presence.
To mark its 30-year anniversary, the Simmons UAE team celebrated with an evening reception with clients and colleagues at the British Embassy in Dubai.
Partner Muneer Khan (pictured), the Middle East regional head, commented on the news: “I’m immensely proud of what the firm and its people have achieved in the UAE over the last three decades, and our wide contribution to the legal landscape. Integral to our success has been our sector focus, guiding our strategic decisions and ensuring we remain at the forefront of our chosen industries”.
Further, he added “We have not only shown a remarkable ability to adapt to change, but also shape it – today leading the way in the integration and advancement of AI within the legal domain. While this anniversary is about reflecting on our accomplishments and progress to date, we are also incredibly excited about the future to come not just in the UAE but in the wider region as we look to open our first office in Saudi Arabia”.
