من نحن

نرتكز في عملنا على فكر قانوني متقن، وتنفيذفعّال، وفهم عميق لأولويات عملائنا.

كيروز وشركاه شركة قانونية في دولة الإمارات العربية المتحدة، أسسها بيار كيروز عام 2006. يمثل محامونا في دبي وأبوظبي الشركات والمؤسسين والمكاتب العائلية والعملاء الأفراد في مختلف أنحاء الدولة، ولدينا مكاتب أخرى في الشارقة وبيروت.

تعمل الشركة من خلال كيانين يعملان كفريق واحد. كيروز وشركاه هي الذراع الاستشارية، وتقدم المشورة في الصفقات والعقود والهيكلة والامتثال. أما نورهان عبداللطيف الزعابي لأعمال المحاماة فهي مكتب المحاماة التابع لنا، والمسجل لدى دائرة الشؤون القانونية لحكومة دبي. ويقصر القانون الإماراتي حق تمثيل العملاء أمام المحاكم المحلية على المحامين المرخصين، ويتولى محامو هذا المكتب تمثيل عملائنا أمامها.

تغطي الشركة تسعة مجالات للممارسة، من التحكيم وقانون الإنشاءات والمقاولات إلى القانون التجاري وقانون الشركات، والقانون الجنائي، وقانون العمل والعمال، وقانون الأسرة والأحوال الشخصية، وقانون الملكية الفكرية، والتقاضي وتسوية المنازعات، والقانون العقاري. ومن خلال نورهان عبداللطيف الزعابي، نمثل عملاءنا أمام المحاكم المحلية في الدولة. كما نترافع أمام محاكم مركز دبي المالي العالمي (DIFC) وسوق أبوظبي العالمي (ADGM)، وأمام هيئات التحكيم وفق قواعد مركز دبي للتحكيم الدولي (DIAC) وغرفة التجارة الدولية (ICC) ومحكمة لندن للتحكيم الدولي (LCIA).

يلجأ إلينا العملاء لنوعين من العمل. الأول هو أعمال الشركات والترخيص والامتثال التي تتيح ممارسة النشاط التجاري ضمن إطار القانون الإماراتي. والثاني هو النزاع، حين يدفع عقد أو جهة تنظيمية أو طرف مقابل الأمر إلى المواجهة. والعميل الذي يكلفنا بعقد لا يحتاج إلى البحث عن محامٍ جديد إذا انتهى هذا العقد إلى نزاع أمام المحاكم المحلية.

How to stop a letter of credit payment for fraud in the UAE

A UAE bank must pay against compliant documents whatever the dispute over the goods, and a court will stop payment only on conclusive proof of the beneficiary's own fraud. Six UAE decisions show the three grounds the courts accept, and why an application made after the bank pays will fail.

التحكيم

Enforcing a foreign arbitral award in the UAE after 2025

A foreign arbitral award is enforced in the UAE by application to the execution judge, who must decide within five working days. Between 2013 and 2022 Dubai courts refused awards over debtor domicile, unsigned pages and domestic procedural conditions, and in 2025 the Court of Cassation rejected all three.

التقاضي وتسوية المنازعات

How to challenge a court expert's report in the UAE

In technical UAE commercial disputes, the court sees the case largely through the report of the expert it appoints under the Evidence Law. Objections not raised within the short window on the initial report are generally lost once the final report is filed, and a party that fails to pay the expert's deposit can lose the appointment altogether.
