As part of the Dubai-Sharjah-Ajman area, Sharjah is the third most populous city in the UAE. As the capital of the emirate of the same name, it is a city that offers both rich cultural heritage as well as amazing opportunities for business growth and development.
This is also an emirate with free trade zones as well as the option to open a mainland company in partnership with a UAE national. For those interested in opening a business in the Hamriyah Free Zone or the SAIF Zone near the airport, working with experienced business law firms is a must.
Ask for References
There are several ways to find the best law firms in the emirate. One of the options is to talk to other business owners who have established businesses in Sharjah or the Dubai and Ajman areas.
Ask why the business owner is recommending the law firm and about the level of service, support, and advice they were provided during the process.
Online Searches
Online searches are effective for those outside of the UAE or those not familiar with current businesses within the emirate. When completing online searches, take the time to review the website and verify the information provided.
International legal firms are the best option as they have the expertise, resources and experienced lawyers to provide the most effective advice and legal representation. Choose law firms with teams of legal experts and not sole practices where resources are limited.
Professional Groups and Organisations
Another good option for finding recommendations is to talk to professional groups and organisations. It is not uncommon for these types of associations to keep recommendations on file and provide information to members on law services with top ratings.
Plan to follow-up with a phone call or an in-person meeting with a representative. Ask questions and get information about the specific legal services you need before choosing a law firm to represent your business interests. Contact STA Law Firm for more information.
