Specialists in International Business Law
Our Origins – From Qatar to a Global Presence
The firm originated in the Middle East, where its founder spent years practicing law, particularly in Qatar. Building on this strong regional foundation, Alexander & Partner has expanded into other emerging markets while maintaining a focus on delivering high-quality legal services tailored to the regulatory environments of these regions.
Our Regional Focus – Middle East, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Europe
Expanding Expertise in Emerging Markets
Alexander & Partner has developed deep expertise in emerging markets, particularly in the Middle East and Sub-Saharan Africa. The firm operates with a dual-headquarters model, based in Berlin and Accra (Ghana), reinforcing its presence on the African continent. In addition, Alexander & Partner collaborates with a trusted network of partner law firms in Côte d’Ivoire, Kenya, UAE, and Qatar.
By leveraging European legal expertise, Middle Eastern financing, and African investment opportunities, the firm effectively bridges cultures and key markets. However, its vision extends beyond these regions. Alexander & Partner continuously adapts to global market developments and expands its capabilities to meet the evolving needs of its international clientele.
Core Business in Europe – Advising Global German and European Companies
In Europe, Alexander & Partner provides long-term legal advisory services to German and European companies engaged in international business, particularly in industrial plant construction, infrastructure projects, and corporate transactions. The firm offers strategic guidance to businesses navigating foreign investment regulations, compliance requirements, and complex contractual structures.
A key differentiator is its strong connection to France. Through its dedicated French Desk, staffed by three French-qualified lawyers, Alexander & Partner offers specialized expertise in corporate law, inheritance law, and real estate transactions. This enables the firm to provide seamless legal services that integrate both French and German legal frameworks, supporting clients with their investments and business operations across Europe.
International Commercial and Investment Arbitration – A Core Area of Expertise
International arbitration is one of Alexander & Partner’s key areas of expertise. The firm has a proven track record of success in multi-million-dollar disputes, particularly in the construction and energy sectors, including mining, power plant projects, and major infrastructure developments such as airports.
With extensive experience in international arbitration under DIAC, HKIAC, ICC, LCIA, SIAC, UNCITRAL, and QICCA Rules, Alexander & Partner advises clients on complex cross-border disputes involving infrastructure developments, foreign investments, and large-scale commercial contracts.
