BaghdadiLaw

BaghdadiLaw’s experience in foreign investment dispute

BaghdadiLaw brings nearly seven decades of legal practice, since its founding in 1957, to foreign investor disputes, with detailed knowledge of how shareholder rights, contractual obligations and regulatory standing interact in the country concerned. We handle foreign investor disagreements with partners, counterparties or investment authorities. We distinguish ownership, management and returns disputes from regulatory decisions, connecting each claim to its basis and responsible party.

We examine the contracts, approvals and dispute provisions, assess negotiation, court and arbitration routes, and prepare the claim or defence. We coordinate the local and cross-border elements of the file.

We coordinate negotiation, claims, appeals or representation through the available route, addressing settlement or project exit. Agreements account for shares, funding, security and company obligations so the resolution covers the investment’s connected interests.

Omar Al-Baghdadi leads our team with more than 30 years of legal experience. From your first consultation through the agreed legal work, you stay in direct contact with our team. We operate in Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Syria through licensed partners and lawyers, coordinating local proceedings and representation within the engagement.

Frequently asked questions

Before requesting foreign investment dispute advice.

How do you identify the right respondent in an investment dispute?

Trace the disputed obligation to the relevant contract, company, authority decision or other instrument. Separate claims against a business partner from challenges to public action, and identify the agreed forum before preparing a demand.

Should a legal demand be answered immediately?

It should be reviewed promptly, but the response should follow document and deadline analysis. A rushed admission, denial, or counter-allegation may harm the position.

Is settlement a sign of a weak case?

No. Settlement is a risk-management option. Its value depends on evidence, remedies, cost, timing, enforceability, commercial interests, and the proposed terms.

How are fees set?

By the question, documents, urgency and deliverable. We confirm scope and fees before work; additional work is agreed separately.

How is my information handled?

Confidentially under professional and privacy obligations, subject to legally required or permitted disclosures. Agree the secure handling method before sharing originals or highly sensitive information.

Does advice include representation?

Representation begins with an agreed engagement covering the responsible lawyer, forum, work and fees. Filing, appearances, notarisation and negotiation are included when agreed. Outcomes depend on the facts, evidence, applicable law and decisions of the competent authority.
