Interview with Essam Al Tamimi

in this interview Al Tamimi explain how the Company has grown from a single office in Sharjah to become the largest law firm in the Middle East.

What was your vision for your law firm?

My vision was to establish a firm that not only addressed the local needs but also aligned with international best practices.
While I knew we had the potential to grow significantly, the journey to becoming the leading law firm in the Middle East is a testament to our strategic focus and dedication to excellence.

Can you give us an evolution of the Legal Landscape?

The UAE’s legal landscape has transformed dramatically, with new regulations, sectors, and a focus on international standards.

Ever since its inception, the firm’s contributions include working with government bodies to ensure the legal framework supports the country’s growth and diversification.

What role has Al Tamimi Company played in the transformation of the UAE's legal framework to support its vision for growth and diversification?

We’ve worked closely with government bodies and businesses to ensure that the legal framework supports the UAE’s vision for growth and diversification.
It’s really a story of a lifetime. What happened in this region — from infrastructure to the legal system — has been truly impressive.
Many outdated laws from the 1980s were replaced to better serve the 21st century, and we played a role in that transformation.

Suno:What contributions has Al Tamimi Company made to the development of the UAE's legal framework to foster a supportive business environment?

We’ve contributed to drafting laws and regulations that were state-of-the-art. That was not by accident — governments here have realised the importance of creating an innovative and supportive business environment.
Unless you’re ahead of the game, you can’t succeed or attract investments, and this is something we deeply understand.
