Mishcon De Reya Riyadh Site : de Reya’s Vision
Kevin Gold, the executive chairperson of Mishcon de Reya, spoke passionately about the significance of this strategic move. He asserted, “Saudi Arabia is already a key jurisdiction for us and is rightly recognized as the biggest single market for legal services in the Middle East.”
He continued, “The opening of an office in Riyadh is a logical next step and further underlines our commitment to the region. Having a fully functioning office in Saudi Arabia is also consistent with our expansion to meet the needs of our global clients, complementing our offerings in Singapore and Hong Kong.”
Rising Interest in Saudi Arabia
Mishcon de Reya joins a growing list of international and UK-based law firms showing intense interest in the flourishing Saudi Arabian legal sector. Recent developments in the region have paved the way for this surge in enthusiasm, with the Saudi government’s approval of changes to its Code of Law Practice to allow foreign legal firms to provide consultations on the kingdom’s laws.
