The Emirati law firm primarily based in Dubai, UAE, Khaled Al-Marri & Partners, recognised for its commercially aligned legal advisory and astute dispute resolution work across the MENA region, has announced the induction of Himanshu Goswami as Head of its Transactions and Regulatory Practice.

Speaking on the firm’s decision, Kushagra Ashok Arora said,
“For nearly two years, we knew that transactions and regulatory advisory would growingly become a critical practice area for the firm, especially given the nature and magnitude of multifaceted transactions handled by the firm since the very day of its inception. Therefore, the reins of this practice area had to be bestowed upon an exceptionally talented and experienced lawyer, and I am pleased that the practice is now under the leadership of Himanshu. We welcome him onboard and look forward to working alongside him.”
Welcoming Himanshu to the firm, Khaled Khalfan Al-Marri (Managing Partner, Co-Founder and Litigation Practice Head) emphasised the broader leadership vision behind the appointment, stating,
“The firm’s transactional and regulatory practice has played a central role in its offering to all our clients. I stand with Kushagra’s selection and join in his belief that Himanshu is growing the firm’s transactional practice in the MENA region alongside all of us.”
Commenting on the development, Abdul Sattar Pirzada (Co-Founding Partner and Arbitration and International Disputes Practice Head) said,
“The firm has always focused on building practices that are thoughtful, well-integrated, and aligned with the needs of our clients. Strengthening our transactions and regulatory capabilities is a natural progression of that approach. Himanshu’s experience and perspective add meaningful depth to the firm, and I look forward to working closely with him as we continue to grow the practice in a measured and cohesive manner.”
As Head of the Transactions and Regulatory Practice, Himanshu Goswami will advise clients on complex transactions, regulatory structuring, compliance-driven advisory, and cross-border matters. He will work closely with the firm’s partners to support clients navigating evolving legal and regulatory frameworks in the UAE.
Commenting on joining the firm, Himanshu Goswami said,
“Khaled Al-Marri & Partners has built a stellar reputation for delivering top-quality work across its practice areas, reflected in the kind of clients the firm advises and the matters it handles.
