For the second consecutive year, Dentons' Litigation and Dispute Resolution Middle East practice has won the Team of the Year award at The Oath Middle East Legal Awards 2016.

The Oath Awards, held yesterday in Dubai, recognise law firms, general counsel and in-house teams who are a cut above the rest and are revolutionising legal services in the region with their outstanding contributions.

With over a 50-year presence in the region, Dentons' Litigation and Dispute Resolution team has an unparalleled understanding of not only the importance of the law throughout the Middle East, but how it is applied, resulting in practical solutions being provided to clients. Dentons has made continuous investments in its market-leading Dispute Resolution practice, with a series of partnership promotions across the region in the past three years alone.

Commenting on the win, Partner and Head of Litigation and Dispute Resolution Middle East at Dentons Andrew Jones said, "I am proud that Dentons continues to be recognised for its international cross-border expertise to resolve immensely complicated disputes for our clients in the Middle East. Across the region we are committed to investing in our dispute resolution practice and providing clients with the highest quality and innovative legal advice."

The award is the second win for the Middle East team this month, having won Property and Construction Team of the Year at the LexisNexis Qatar Business Law Forum & Awards 2016 in November 2016.
