Lawyer and Legal Advisor for Clients in Arar and the Northern Borders Region
The Northern Borders Region is distinguished by its location on the land border crossings with Iraq, the mining and industrial projects at Waad Al-Shamal, and transport and trade that pass through Arar, Turaif and Rafha. We serve individuals and businesses in the region through electronic judicial channels, and arrange in-person attendance when necessary.

Recurring Matters in Arar and the Northern Borders
In land transport contracts and cross-border trade, disputes recur over delayed and damaged shipments, waiting and storage charges, and who bears the consequences of procedural delays. Here we ask for the transport contract, bills of lading, delivery records and correspondence with clearance companies.
Around the mining and industrial projects at Waad Al-Shamal, service companies, contractors and labor suppliers operate, giving rise to claims for progress payments and retentions, and employment contract disputes in work environments far from cities.
