Join Maher Al Nashar, Partner, and Glenn Bull, Senior Associate, for this one-hour webinar in which they provide an overview of the key practical implications of these reforms for contractors, employers, and their advisers. The session, moderated by Paula Boast, Partner and Head of Construction, Engineering & Projects Middle East, will highlight the interplay between the new statutory provisions and FIDIC-based contracts, the impact of the regional conflict on hardship claims, the practical implications of the new defects regime for mid-project remediation, and the steps parties should be taking now to ensure their contracts and claims management processes are fit for purpose before the New Civil Code takes effect.
