Norton Rose Fulbright has become the latest international law firm to augment its Saudi Arabia presence, as the government strips away local market entry restrictions on foreign firms.
The firm is forming an association with the Company of Mohammed A. Altammami for Legal Services (LOMAT), according to a statement. The new tie-up deal follows the termination of its prior local association with Riyadh-based The Mohammed Al-Ghamdi Law Firm, in accordance with sweeping reforms aimed at increasing opportunities for both local lawyers and foreign firms.
