The Oath speaks to Khodeir about his new role.

What will be the main focus of your new role?

Our vision in Qatar is to continue to support the development of the economy through the provision of first class legal services to organisations operating in, or looking to invest, in Qatar. We will focus on delivering services that not only help our clients to do business effectively, but also assist in shaping sound legal practices of a civil law regime.

To help achieve our mission, my objective will be to work with my team to grow our Qatar practice over the next five years to be able to match the increasing number of clients who entrust us with their legal needs.
