Government Advisory
Led by Sarah Gonem, our team of lawyers works hand-in-hand with a wide range of government ministries and authorities to support achieving their ambitious mandates set in line with Vision 2030 and the Vision Realisation Programs.
Whether we are drafting new laws, regulations and policies; providing detailed strategic project support and advice built on international comparative exercises and benchmarks; or providing day-to-day legal function support like the development of service agreements, we ensure we partner with our clients to deliver the best service to achieve their objectives.
