Our cases
Developing control measures for the director of a gaming company in the UAE and legal setup of relations with investors
Amended the company's incorporation documents in the UAE so that the parties could make decisions taking into account the opinion of all investors on issues of dividend payments and profit reinvestment, rules on the transfer of shares and the preemptive right to purchase, restrictions on transactions that the director can conclude without the consent of the general meeting of shareholders. The implementation of the project allowed the client to launch a business for the development and commercialization of mobile games and avoid corporate conflicts.
Preparing a contract template for formalizing relations with freelance developers who work remotely for a client's legal entity in the UAE
We prepared a standard contract form taking into account the labor legislation of the UAE in order to minimize the risks of reclassifying the contract as an employment contract. The contract includes conditions that allow the client to concentrate exclusive rights to all intellectual property objects created by freelance developers and minimize risks associated with the rights of third parties.
Development of a local regulation on issues related to vacations and sick leave in a new client company in the UAE
We developed a single local regulatory act on issues of providing vacations and sick leaves, including general annual paid leave, maternity leave, family leave, rules for accounting of vacation pay, sick leave and holidays in the UAE. Not only the requirements of the federal legislation of the UAE were taken into account, but also the regulation of the specific Free Zone in which the client's company is foreign-incorporated.
Analysis of options for registering a company in the UAE, which will act as a clearing house for receiving and making payments, supplying specialized equipment and providing logistics services
Conducted a detailed analysis and selected a suitable free economic zone in Abu Dhabi taking into account the client's business requirements. A corporate analysis was also conducted to identify the optimal organizational and legal form of a legal entity, powers, requirements, and the creation process.
Development of an option program for c-suite employees of a company in the UAE
We studied the client's expectations from the option program, analyzed the regulation of a specific Free Zone and developed a custom option program to motivate the company's top management. In all cases where several different options were available to the client, we made the option program project variable and consulted the client on the advantages and disadvantages of each of the possible solutions.
Development of a corporate structure for an international business branch and support for the registration of a family foundation in Abu Dhabi
We analyzed jurisdictions that are suitable for incorporating legal entities, developed the internal structure of the fund (distributed areas of responsibility between each participant and created protection mechanisms for beneficiaries and their heirs), the fund charter, corporate agreement and nominee service agreement, contributed company shares to the fund's capital and opened a bank account.
