Chambers Global, Saudi Arabia, 2022

Their ability to step into our shoes as a client and address the challenges we face... Sometimes, when we compare advice received from Clyde & Co and other international firms, the difference is very clear! We subsequently stopped using all other law firms.

Legal 500, EMEA, Saudi Arabia, 2021

Clyde & Co Middle East is a full service firm in the region, unlike other international firms who only have a satellite office. This is a huge benefit when trying to execute complex projects and entering the region for the first time. Sometimes when we compare advice received from Clyde & Co and other international firms, the difference is very clear! We subsequently stopped using all other law firms.
