China’s Dacheng Law Offices has secured an exclusive relationship with Dubai’s Hussain Lootah & Associates (HL&A), in what is thought to be the first tie-up between a Middle Eastern law firm and a Chinese outfit.
The Beijing giant has signed an agreement with HL&A in an effort to boost its presence in the Arabian Gulf. Under the terms of the deal, the two firms will refer work and share expertise on the local business challenges in their respective markets.
