Family Business Legal Advisory in the UAE

At Alketbi Legal, we offer comprehensive legal advisory services tailored to the unique needs of family-owned businesses. Our goal is to help families protect their wealth, preserve harmony across generations, and structure their businesses in a way that minimizes legal risk and ensures long-term sustainability.


Preserving Legacy with Strategic Legal Planning

We specialize in:

  • Structuring family businesses to limit liability and avoid internal disputes
  • Designing robust succession plans to ensure smooth generational transitions
  • Creating family charters and governance frameworks
  • Advising on shareholder agreements and asset protection strategies

Our team brings a deep understanding of both Sharia and common law inheritance frameworks, enabling us to provide accurate, culturally sensitive guidance that aligns with family values and legal obligations.


Wills & Estate Planning for Expatriates and Non-Muslims

For non-Muslim residents and expatriates, we offer bespoke will drafting services under DIFC Wills and Probate Registry, allowing families to clearly dictate how assets are distributed in accordance with their wishes—outside the default Sharia inheritance framework.

Whether you’re a family business owner seeking legal clarity or an expatriate in need of secure estate planning, Alketbi Legal provides peace of mind through clear, compliant, and future-focused legal solutions.
