Corporate Law

At FCL International Lawyers and Legal Consultants, we provide comprehensive legal solutions that support businesses at every stage of their growth. Our corporate lawyers in Dubai combine regional expertise with international experience to deliver strategic, practical, and compliant legal advice for businesses operating in the UAE and across global markets.

Whether you are an entrepreneur establishing a new venture, a multinational expanding operations, or a company with complex regulatory frameworks, our legal team ensures your business is built on a solid legal foundation.

Company Formation and Structuring

Establishing a business in the UAE involves choosing the right legal structure, securing licenses, and complying with local and free zone regulations. Our corporate formation lawyers in Dubai guide clients through every stage of the process—from drafting Memoranda of Association (MOA) and Articles of Association (AOA) to liaising with government authorities and free zone entities.

We help you choose the most suitable setup—Mainland, Free Zone, or Offshore—based on your business model, ownership preferences, and tax strategy.

Corporate Governance and Compliance

Strong governance ensures sustainability and investor confidence. Our team advises boards and management on corporate compliance, shareholder rights, fiduciary duties, and internal control policies in line with UAE Commercial Companies Law and international best practices.

We assist with drafting governance frameworks, board resolutions, and compliance manuals, helping organizations mitigate risks and maintain transparent operations.

Mergers, Acquisitions & Joint Ventures

Our M&A lawyers in Dubai provide end-to-end support in mergers, acquisitions, and joint ventures across multiple sectors. From conducting due diligence and negotiating deal structures to drafting share purchase agreements and regulatory filings, we ensure transactions are smooth, compliant, and value-driven.

We also assist international investors in structuring partnerships aligned with UAE ownership laws and foreign investment regulations.

Commercial Contracts and Transactions

Contracts form the foundation of all business relationships. Our commercial contract lawyers draft, review, and negotiate agreements including distribution, agency, franchise, service, and supply contracts—ensuring clarity, enforceability, and protection of your business interests.

Each document we prepare is drafted to your commercial objectives and is compliant with UAE Civil Code and Commercial Transactions Law.

Foreign Investment and Cross-Border Business

The UAE’s evolving legal framework continues to attract foreign investors. Our investment lawyers assist in simplifying Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) regulations, cross-border transactions, and compliance with Ministry of Economy and free zone authorities.

We advise clients on optimal ownership structures, tax-efficient jurisdictions, and regulatory requirements to maximize investment benefits.

Corporate Restructuring and Reorganization

In times of expansion, merger, or financial challenge, effective restructuring is critical. Our corporate lawyers provide solutions for share capital changes, debt restructuring, liquidation, and reorganization.

We ensure smooth transitions while maintaining business continuity and compliance with all UAE commercial and tax laws.

Agency, Distribution & Franchise Law

The UAE’s commercial agency laws have specific requirements that protect both principals and agents. Our franchise and agency lawyers in Dubai draft and review franchise, distribution, and agency agreements.

We also represent clients in disputes involving agency terminations, renewals, and commission claims.

Employment and Labour Law (Corporate Advisory)

Our employment lawyers in Dubai advise corporations on UAE Labour Law compliance, drafting employment contracts, HR policies, and termination procedures. We also represent employers and employees in disputes related to end-of-service benefits, non-compete clauses, and workplace regulations.
