Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about internal support in Dubai.
❓ What is internal support in Dubai?
Internal support in Dubai is a monthly engagement that gives your company an assigned legal officer, ongoing contract management, compliance and policy review, and monthly reporting. It is designed as in-house legal support without the cost of a full-time in-house lawyer.
❓ How is internal support different from hiring an in-house lawyer?
An in-house lawyer is a full-time employee with salary, benefits, visa, and office costs. Internal support gives you a dedicated legal officer on a monthly engagement, with the same continuity and knowledge of your business — but at a fraction of the cost.
❓ What does the assigned legal officer do?
Your assigned legal officer handles your contracts, reviews policies, advises on legal decisions, and is your main point of contact. Because they work with you month after month, they understand your business and industry.
❓ What is included in contract management?
Contract management includes drafting, reviewing, and managing your supplier, client, employment, and partner contracts — as well as maintaining clear records of contracts and their key terms.
❓ What does compliance and policy review cover?
We review your internal policies, procedures, and regulatory obligations to ensure they align with UAE law and your business activities. This includes areas like employment, data, licensing, and industry-specific compliance.
❓ What is included in monthly reporting?
Your monthly report covers contracts reviewed, issues flagged, policy updates, and compliance status — giving management and the board clear visibility of the legal work done for the month.
❓ How much does internal support cost in Dubai?
Service charges start from $2,722.94 (approximately AED 10,000 per month) and depend on your company, its size, and its business model. Work outside the agreed scope is quoted before it is carried out.
❓ Is there a minimum engagement period?
Internal support is a monthly engagement. We typically recommend a minimum initial period so the legal officer can fully understand your business and put proper processes in place.
❓ Can you support companies in free zones?
Yes. We support companies across all UAE free zones — DMCC, JAFZA, DIFC, ADGM, and others — as well as mainland companies.
❓ Can internal support replace our in-house lawyer?
For most small and mid-sized companies, yes. Larger groups often keep internal counsel and use our internal support for overflow, specialist matters, or additional capacity.
❓ What happens if a matter becomes a dispute?
If a matter becomes contentious, the same team continues into negotiation, litigation, or arbitration — so nothing is lost in a handover.
