DLA Piper to Expand Middle Eastern Real Estate Practice

DLA Piper had announced that it will open offices in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates, and is considering similar moves to Qatar and India. This is the firm’s second office in the UAE–it is already set up in Dubai–and they feel this expansion is warranted due to the booming real estate industry in the region. DLA Piper is not alone in its expansion in the Middle east; Charbourne & Parke opened a Dubai branch earlier this year, and Baker & McKenzie has offices in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain.
