• Litigation & Advocacy

  Commercial supply dispute

  Sector: Retail and trade

  Challenge

  A trading business received goods that did not match the agreed specifications, and the supplier refused to replace them or refund the price.

  Approach

  We gathered the correspondence and delivery records, served a formal legal notice, then filed a claim before the Commercial Court seeking compensation for the proven loss.

  Outcome

  A judgment was issued in the business’s favour for a substantial part of the claim, and we followed through with the enforcement procedures.

• Corporate & Business

  Reorganising a family business

  Sector: Family businesses

  Challenge

  A disagreement among the founding partner’s heirs over management and profit distribution, with no articles of association governing these matters.

  Approach

  We held sessions with the partners and proposed amended articles of association and a partners’ agreement governing management, voting and the transfer of shares.

  Outcome

  The partners adopted the amendments, which were notarised, and the causes of disagreement narrowed without recourse to the courts.

• Contracts & Agreements

  Reviewing a construction contract before signing

  Sector: Contracting and construction

  Challenge

  A construction contract drafted by the project owner contained a high penalty clause and unilateral termination terms.

  The contract was signed after the termination clauses were amended and a reasonable cap was set on agreed compensation.

  Entering the Saudi market

  Sector: Technology and telecommunications

  Challenge

  A foreign company wished to establish an entity in Riyadh and was unsure of the requirements after the new Investment Law came into force.

  We prepared a requirements roadmap, reviewed activity restrictions, handled investment registration, incorporation and commercial registration, then drafted the first employment contracts.

  Outcome

  The company began operating in the Kingdom after completing the required registrations.

• Notarization

  Powers of attorney and corporate documents

  Sector: Real estate and development

  Challenge

  A business needed several powers of attorney and a notarised partners’ resolution within a short time to complete a transaction.

  Approach

  We reviewed the representatives’ authority under the articles of association, drafted the scope of each power of attorney precisely, and arranged a single notarisation appointment.

  Outcome

  The powers of attorney and the resolution were notarised electronically on the required date.

  A dispute between partners

  Sector: Professional services

  Reconciliation is best

  We represented one party in structured negotiation sessions and proposed an independent valuation mechanism and a payment schedule.

  Outcome

  The dispute ended in a notarised settlement agreement, in keeping with the principle that “reconciliation is best”.
