WinJustice Joins Legal Leaders at Emirates Law and Arbitration Day 2025

In a significant step toward reinforcing its strategic role in the UAE’s legal and dispute resolution landscape, WinJustice proudly participated in the Emirates Law and Arbitration Day, held on Monday, 12 May 2025, at the prestigious Ajman Saray Hotel. This distinguished event, organized by the GCC Commercial Arbitration Centre, brought together senior legal professionals, institutional representatives, and decision-makers from across the region to engage in high-level dialogue on the future of arbitration and commercial justice in the UAE.
WinJustice at the Forefront of Legal Finance and Policy Dialogue
Representing WinJustice at the forum was Mr. Obaid Bin Mes’har (LLB, MBA, FCIArb), Managing Partner, who addressed participants during the main plenary session. His remarks focused on the critical and expanding role of litigation funding as an enabler of access to justice, particularly in complex, capital-intensive disputes arising in sectors such as real estate, construction, and cross-border commerce.
Mr. Bin Mes’har emphasized that as legal systems evolve, so too must the financial tools that support them. Litigation funding, he noted, is no longer a peripheral concept but a central feature of modern dispute resolution architecture—allowing claimants to pursue meritorious claims, regardless of financial capacity, and enabling law firms to operate without the strain of client funding gaps.
He also reiterated WinJustice’s commitment to ethical, transparent, and jurisdiction-specific funding practices, aligned with both UAE legal frameworks and international best standards.
Themes of Strategic Importance
The Emirates Law and Arbitration Day serves as a national platform for knowledge exchange and legal foresight. Key topics explored at this year’s gathering included:
- Recent legislative and procedural reforms relevant to dispute resolution in the UAE, with particular focus on the construction and real estate sectors;
- The role of arbitration institutions and common law jurisdictions (DIFC and ADGM) in positioning the UAE as a hub for international dispute settlement;
- The recognition of distinguished legal professionals and their contributions to the development of the justice sector.
Throughout the event, WinJustice’s presence reinforced the growing importance of litigation finance as a support mechanism within this broader transformation.
A Continuing Commitment to the Legal Community
WinJustice’s participation in this important event reflects its broader mission: to partner with the legal community in expanding access to justice, supporting the independence of legal professionals, and driving innovation in dispute resolution across the Emirates.
By providing non-recourse litigation funding, WinJustice enables:
- Individuals and entities with valid legal claims to proceed without incurring prohibitive legal costs;
