Product description

Why should you buy Laws of the DIFC Volume 2


This book is the second in a series created as a result of a project initiated by the Chief Justice of the DIFC Courts, Dr Michael Hwang to provide easy access to explanations of the DIFC's laws and regulations and create DIFC equivalent to Halsbury's Laws. It was commissioned by the DIFC Academy of Law on the laws of the Dubai Financial Centre - the common law freezone and financial centre in Dubai, UAE. International interest in the DIFC, its English language laws and Courts has been developing in recent years as it is possible for entities both inside and outside the freezone to opt for their disputes to be heard there making it a convenient forum for global investors. The first book in this series Laws of the DIFC Volume 2 covers Arbitration, Damages, the Court Law, Obligations, Company and Employment law.

Accredited Academy of Law Specialist firms, with significant experience of litigation and providing advice in the DIFC have been allocated to write the titles within this volume, which will include coverage of the following topics:

  • Contract - Baker Botts
  • Implied Terms in Contracts and Unfair Terms - Baker Botts'
  • Trusts - Outer Temple Chambers
  • Data Protection - Stephenson Harwood
  • Real Property- Clyde & Co
  • Electronic Transactions - Baker Botts'

As well as providing an overview of the legislation in each area, the authors offer provision by provision commentary on each article:

  • highlighting both similarities and differences with the common law or equivalent international provision making it easier for those more familiar with other common law jurisdictions to quickly see where the potential legal differences apply
  • providing details and explanations of important DIFC cases in the specific area giving practical advice on the likely DIFC Court treatment
  • providing details and explanations of relevant cases and commentary from other common law jurisdictions (with references) which can be useful to those researching that area
