Summary
Legal Counsel and Legal Technologist with 3+ years of experience supporting startups and SMEs across the MENA region. I work across corporate matters including incorporation, governance, restructurings, and regulatory filings, and I draft and negotiate practical commercial documentation such as NDAs, service agreements, and tech-facing contracts. Alongside legal work, I contribute to building AI-enabled legal tools by translating legal workflows into clear requirements, quality controls, and reliable user outputs, with multi-jurisdiction exposure across nine operating countries. Fluent in Arabic and English (with working French), I bring strong drafting, sound risk judgment, and stakeholder collaboration, with a focus on clarity, compliance, and execution.
