On the 29 October 2014, the Abu Dhabi saw the launch of its first Litigation Clinic. This new initiative identified common and important litigation issues and shed some light on the concerns faced during the litigation process and the court’s application of the law; and most importantly, how litigation works. In particular, the presenters Partner El-Ameir Noor, Senior Associate Ayen Biar and Associate Abobakr Dafalla addressed the topics of liquidated damages and the UAE Court’s application of the liquidated damages. The interactive seminar was both well attended and well received by our clients.
