A case before a Dubai Court where the Court had to determine whether a company could be impleaded in a case even when its sister company was the entity that was signatory to the contract, which was the subject of the dispute.
A case before Dubai Court related to a construction dispute for claims for outstanding payment, variations and prolongation costs.
A case before Dubai Court where the Court had to determine whether an arbitration award could be set aside because the persons who signed the agreement containing the arbitration clause did not have the specific authority to bind their respective companies to an arbitration agreement.
