How do I contact a lawyer at Al Murqab Law Office?
Call or WhatsApp us on 7190 0190, email info@almurqablaw.com, or visit our office on Salwa Road in Doha, Sunday to Thursday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Urgent consultations are available 24/7.
What areas of law does Al Murqab Law Office handle?
We advise and act in criminal, civil, commercial, corporate, administrative, real estate, labour and family law, as well as arbitration and dispute resolution — for individuals and companies alike.
Do you advise companies and foreign investors in Qatar?
Yes. We advise companies on formation, structuring, contract drafting, compliance and shareholder disputes, and help non-Qatari investors understand the rules on investing and setting up a business in Qatar.
Can I get legal advice in English?
Yes. We provide consultations, correspondence and legal representation in both Arabic and English, and regularly work with expatriates and foreign companies in Qatar.
What should I bring to my first legal consultation?
Bring copies of the documents relevant to your matter — contracts, correspondence, notices and any earlier judgments or decisions — with your ID and a short timeline of events. This lets the lawyer assess your position accurately from the first meeting.
Is what I tell a lawyer confidential?
Yes. Everything a client shares is subject to complete professional confidentiality — a legal and ethical obligation we uphold on every matter.
How are legal fees agreed?
Fees depend on the nature, complexity and stage of the matter, and are agreed with the client in writing before work begins, so the position is clear from the outset.
