In November 2020, the UAE government announced an overhaul to personal and family laws. In a remarkable effort to consolidate the UAE’s principle of tolerance, a number of announcement were made with regards to alcohol consumption, women’s rights, cohabitation rules and protection of good Samaritans, to name a few.

Join the Benelux Business Council in collaboration with Afridi & Angell Legal Consultants for a webinar outlining the above changes in personal law in the UAE on 22 February 2021 at 13.00 (UAE time). 

Danielle Lobo, Partner at Afridi & Angell, will discuss the recent announcement and provide some insights on (a) where we stand in terms of implementation, and (b) what this might concretely mean in practice. 

We will also be welcoming questions from the virtual audience.
