A Riyadh project may involve a new Saudi company, an investment in an existing business or a regional headquarters arrangement. We help assess the operating model, corporate structure, relevant approvals and documents needed to move the project forward.

  • Foreign investment and company formation support.
  • Assessment of Regional Headquarters arrangements.
  • Shareholder agreements, bylaws and corporate governance.
  • Coordination with authorities and commercial stakeholders within the agreed scope.

Governance and commercial agreements

Once a business is established, its contracts and governance arrangements need to support day-to-day operations. We advise on commercial agreements, changes in ownership, decision-making arrangements and transactions. For acquisitions, legal due diligence helps identify matters to address in the transaction documents and implementation plan.

Managing a commercial or tax dispute

We review the facts, documents and procedural position before defining a strategy for a dispute. Our Saudi services include drafting claims and responses, attending hearings and negotiating settlements when instructed. An initial enquiry should identify the parties, the type of notice received and any stated deadline.
