Why clients from Rabat choose the firm
As the Kingdom's administrative capital, Rabat is home to the ministries, the headquarters of the main public bodies, the Court of Cassation and a full set of first-instance and appeal courts. The firm is based here, in the heart of the Agdal district.
Rabat hosts the ministries, public institutions, embassies and many company headquarters. Cases here often combine administrative law, public procurement, civil service and business law, a few minutes from the firm.
Every business law case follows the same method: a confidential first meeting, analysis of the applicable law (Code of Obligations and Contracts, Commercial Code), a costed strategy with a fee agreement, then action before the Rabat Court of First Instance or the relevant public authority.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions on business law
Which court has jurisdiction over a dispute between two companies in Morocco?
Disputes between traders relating to their commercial activities fall within the jurisdiction of the Commercial Courts (Law No. 53-95). In Rabat, the Rabat Commercial Court hears the case at first instance; appeals go to the Commercial Court of Appeal for the district.
Does a commercial contract have to be in writing in Morocco?
In commercial matters, evidence may be adduced by any means (art. 334 of the Commercial Code), but a written contract remains essential to set out obligations, deadlines, penalties and the competent court. The firm always recommends a written contract and, where appropriate, an arbitration or mediation clause.
Can the firm act for clients from Rabat?
Yes. The firm, based in Agdal, in the heart of the capital, pleads before the Rabat Court of First Instance and the competent courts of the Kingdom, in accordance with the judicial organisation. Meetings take place at the firm or by video call.
