Charles Russell, a London head-quartered firm opened a new office in Qatar on 3rd December, expanding its presence in the Middle East. The firm offers a full suite of services and already has a strong presence in Bahrain. Charles Russell specialises in real estate, construction, banking and sports, litigation and arbitration, corporate work and intellectual property. The new outpost has been launched with a view to having private client counsel assist the Qatari and international community in Doha.
Qatar has been rated one of the fastest growing economies in the world: the country has proved to be the most recession proof in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) and consequently, investment in the state has surged. Patrick Gearon, Partner and Head of Middle East at Charles Russell commented “Opening our office in Qatar, our second office in the GCC, is testament to the firm’s continuing strong commitment to the Middle East region. We recognise the impressive and fast-paced developments taking place in Qatar and look forward to taking an active role in this.” |
