Personal bio

Distinguished Construction Dispute Resolution Specialist
Bridging Engineering Excellence with Legal Mastery

As a distinguished practitioner at the intersection of construction engineering and dispute resolution, I bring unparalleled expertise to complex construction and infrastructure disputes. My unique professional foundation combines rigorous Civil Engineering training with advanced legal scholarship, including an LLM in Construction Law and Arbitration, positioning me as a rare specialist who comprehends both the technical intricacies and legal complexities inherent in modern construction disputes.
PROFESSIONAL DISTINCTIONS & CREDENTIALS
My professional standing is anchored by prestigious institutional affiliations: Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators (FCIArb), Member of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (MRICS), and Project Management Professional (PMP). These credentials reflect not merely academic achievement, but a commitment to excellence across multiple disciplines essential to effective dispute resolution.
As a qualified arbitrator with the Dubai International Arbitration Centre (DIAC) and registered expert with the Ministry of Justice (Expert No. 709), I operate at the highest levels of regional and international dispute resolution frameworks. This dual qualification enables me to serve both as neutral decision-maker and technical expert, providing comprehensive solutions to complex construction challenges.
