2.Website Purpose

This website is provided for general informational purposes and to provide information about FB Legal Group, its services, locations, professional capabilities and related matters.

The information available on this website is not intended to constitute legal advice, business advice, financial advice, tax advice or any other form of professional advice.

You should obtain appropriate professional advice in relation to your specific circumstances before acting or refraining from acting on the basis of information contained on this website.

3.No Lawyer-Client Relationship

Accessing or using this website, submitting an enquiry, sending an email, using the contact form, communicating through WhatsApp, or otherwise contacting FB Legal Group does not by itself create a lawyer-client, adviser-client or other professional relationship.

A professional engagement will arise only where FB Legal Group has expressly agreed to act in relation to a particular matter and the applicable engagement arrangements have been confirmed.

You should not assume that FB Legal Group represents you or is acting on your behalf unless such an engagement has been expressly established.

4.No Reliance

While we seek to provide useful and accurate information, the content of this website is general in nature and may not reflect the most recent legal, regulatory, commercial or other developments.

Laws, regulations, procedures and professional requirements may change, and their application may depend on the particular facts and circumstances of each matter.

You should not rely solely on information contained on this website when making legal, commercial, financial or other decisions.

5.Professional Services and Jurisdictions

FB Legal Group provides legal and advisory services in accordance with the applicable professional, regulatory and licensing requirements relevant to the particular service and jurisdiction.

The availability, scope and manner of providing particular services may vary depending on the jurisdiction, nature of the matter, applicable regulatory requirements and the professionals involved.

References on this website to jurisdictions, courts, arbitration institutions, regulatory authorities or professional services should not be interpreted as a representation that FB Legal Group is authorised to provide every type of regulated service directly in every jurisdiction.

Where appropriate, services may involve coordination with appropriately licensed independent professionals or professional firms.

6.UAE Court Representation and Professional Collaboration

Where a matter requires formal court representation, advocacy, filing or another activity that must be undertaken by a locally licensed advocate or other authorised professional in the United Arab Emirates, such activity will be undertaken or coordinated in accordance with applicable professional and regulatory requirements.

FB Legal Group may collaborate with independent licensed advocates, legal consultants or professional firms where appropriate.

Any reference on this website to collaboration with Khadija Alkhanbouli Advocates & Legal Consultancy describes a professional collaboration between separate and independent professional entities.

FB Legal Group and Khadija Alkhanbouli Advocates & Legal Consultancy remain separate and independent professional entities. Such collaboration does not by itself constitute a merger, partnership, joint venture or single legal practice.

8.Conflict Checks and Acceptance of Instructions

Before accepting a professional engagement, FB Legal Group may need to conduct conflict checks, client identification procedures, regulatory checks, compliance procedures or other internal reviews.

We reserve the right to decline an enquiry or proposed engagement where appropriate, including where a conflict exists, regulatory requirements cannot be satisfied, the matter falls outside our professional capabilities, or for other legitimate professional or commercial reasons.

No communication through this website should be interpreted as confirmation that FB Legal Group has accepted instructions.
