Why industry knowledge matters alongside legal expertise

A contract dispute in the oil and gas sector raises genuinely different practical considerations than the same category of dispute in healthcare or fintech — the regulatory backdrop, the typical contract structures, and even which government body has jurisdiction can all differ meaningfully by sector.

This is why the firm maintains dedicated coverage across 39 industries alongside its 14 core practice areas — a founder in giga-projects and a family office principal need genuinely different things from corporate counsel, even where the underlying legal service (say, contract drafting) is nominally the same.

Government-adjacent and giga-project work

Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 economy has created substantial legal work connected to government and semi-government entities and the giga-projects reshaping the Kingdom's economic landscape, and this is an area where the firm has built particular depth given how central these projects are to the current business environment.

This work often combines our Public & Regulatory and Corporate & Commercial practices, since a giga-project contract typically involves both government procurement rules and standard commercial structuring at once.

Financial services, family offices, and emerging companies

The firm advises across the financial ecosystem broadly — banks, fintech ventures, family offices managing private wealth, and venture-backed companies at various growth stages — recognizing that each of these client types has a genuinely distinct relationship with capital, regulation, and risk.

A family office's legal needs, for instance, blend elements of our Private Client and Corporate & Commercial practices in ways a standard corporate client's needs typically don't.

Finding the right industry page for your business

Each industry page below reflects the specific patterns the firm has observed working with clients in that sector — the contract structures that come up repeatedly, the regulatory bodies most relevant, and the practice areas that see the heaviest demand from that client type.

If your business doesn't map neatly onto one of the 39 industries listed, this isn't a limitation — message the firm directly and describe your sector, and an attorney will confirm relevant experience during your initial conversation regardless of whether a dedicated page exists for your exact niche.

How industry pages connect to practice area expertise

These industry pages complement, rather than replace, the firm's core practice area pages — a technology company's dispute still ultimately runs through our Disputes & Litigation practice, for example, but the industry page reflects the specific patterns that come up for technology clients specifically.

This dual structure means a client can approach the firm either through their industry or through the specific legal service they need, and both paths reach the same depth of relevant experience.

Direct Answers

Does the firm only work with clients in these 39 listed industries?

No — these reflect where the firm has built particular sector depth, but the underlying practice areas serve clients across any legitimate industry. Message the firm to confirm relevant experience for your specific sector.

How is an industry page different from a practice area page?

A practice area page (like Corporate & Commercial) covers a legal service broadly; an industry page reflects how that service and others typically apply to a specific sector's particular patterns and regulatory context.

Which industries does the firm have the deepest experience in?

Government-adjacent and giga-project work, banking and financial services, and family offices are areas of particular depth, though the firm's coverage spans all 39 listed industries.

Can one matter involve both an industry specialty and multiple practice areas?

Yes, commonly — a giga-project matter, for instance, often draws on both our Public & Regulatory and Corporate & Commercial practices simultaneously, coordinated by attorneys who understand the sector's specific context.

What if my business doesn't fit neatly into one of these industries?

That's fine — message the firm directly and describe your business, and an attorney will confirm relevant experience during your initial conversation, whether or not your exact niche has a dedicated page.
