As an advisor to companies on-chain, my goal is to help businesses achieve their highest ambitions with the law supporting them rather than working against them. While it may seem difficult to imagine a world for decentralised purists to abide by the laws of any particular country, my belief is that one has to work from inside the system to change it. That, to me, is the difference between those companies that will make it and those that won’t. I hope to work with any and all companies in the Web3/ crypto/ DeFi/ GameFi sectors in Dubai and the Middle East as they choose to leverage their technology to change the world in new and exciting ways. I aim to be along for the ride smoothing out the rough edges, keeping paperwork in order and ensuring that solvable legal hurdles aren’t preventing my clients from scaling new heights. I am driven by the passion and focus I see in my clients and I see myself as matching that level of enthusiasm and disruption to create innovative and commercial solutions. My desire is to not be just a lawyer, but to be a partner that is equally driven and equally devoted to success. This drive and focus forms the lynchpin of my practice and my road towards ensuring that every Web3 company that works with me finds success within the commercial and regulatory reality that they operate in, while slowly changing the rules to suit their disruptive tech. I work with a talented team of lawyers to provide global full-service solutions to companies operating on any layer of the blockchain – from company setups, regulatory licensing, tokenisation and gamification to IP and risk management and litigation advice. We provide a one-stop-shop for all legal issues wherever in the world our clients choose to operate. As we have seen Dubai explode as one of the world’s leading crypto hubs, I have advised companies on their company setups and licensing applications and increasingly on commercial deals and dispute resolution as they grow more mature and seasoned in this jurisdiction. Drop me a DM or reach out if you have any questions about blockchain, gamification or DeFi or just want to chat about anything crypto.
