Mergers & Acquisitions

Buying or selling a business is among the highest-stakes decisions a company makes, and the outcome is largely determined before completion: in the diligence that reveals what is really being bought, the structure that shapes tax and risk, and the documents that allocate what happens if the past was not as represented. We provide end-to-end M&A support for buyers and sellers across the UAE.

How a deal runs — and where we add value

Due diligence: we investigate the target’s corporate standing, contracts, licences, employment, litigation and liabilities, so the price reflects reality. Structuring: share sale or asset sale, direct or via holding structures, with the tax and regulatory consequences mapped. Negotiation and documents: the sale and purchase agreement, warranties and indemnities, disclosure, conditions and completion mechanics — where risk is actually allocated. Approvals: regulatory, licensing and, where thresholds are met, merger-control clearances. Completion and after: transfer formalities, registrations, and the integration steps that make the deal real.

Who we act for

Buyers acquiring UAE businesses or entering the market by acquisition; sellers and founders realising value — including family businesses at succession; and investors taking or exiting stakes. On each side, our role is the same: protect the client’s position and keep the transaction moving.

Mergers & Acquisitions FAQs

Ask a question
In a share sale you buy the company with everything in it, known and unknown; in an asset sale you select what you take. The choice drives risk, tax, consents and price — and it is the first structuring decision we work through with you.
From weeks for a simple private deal to several months where diligence is heavy or regulatory approvals are needed. A disciplined process — which is our job to run — is the biggest factor in keeping momentum.
