About the Commercial Companies Law Workshop in Dubai

If you sit on a board, manage a company or hold shares in a UAE business, it pays to know exactly where your legal responsibilities begin and end. This workshop is designed to make that clearer.

The session is delivered in English and takes place on the 13th floor of Dubai Chambers. It combines the key principles of the law with practical scenarios, so you leave with a sense of how the rules apply in day-to-day business.

It is a focused morning rather than a long course, which makes it easier to fit around a working week.

What to Expect

Key Principles of the Law

The workshop opens with the main principles of the UAE Commercial Companies Law and how they shape the way companies are run.

Roles and Legal Duties

You will look at the roles, legal duties and potential liabilities of directors, managers and shareholders, and how they differ.

Assessing Liability

The session covers how liability is assessed in common corporate governance situations, a practical area for anyone making decisions on behalf of a company.

Governance and Risk Management

Governance requirements, risk management and best practice are discussed, with steps companies can take to stay compliant.

Case Studies

Case studies and practical scenarios help bring the theory to life and give you room to ask questions.

Key Highlights

• A half-day workshop on the UAE Commercial Companies Law.
• Organised by Dubai Chambers and Dr. Hassan Abdulla Legal Consultancy.
• Covers directors’, managers’ and shareholders’ duties and liabilities.
• Practical case studies and scenarios.
• Delivered in English at Dubai Chambers, Deira.

Why It Matters

Directors and shareholders can face personal consequences when governance goes wrong, and many only look closely at their duties after a problem appears. A structured morning with legal specialists is a calmer way to check where you stand, spot gaps in your own company and take sensible steps before they are needed.

Who It Is For

The topics suit company directors, managers and shareholders, as well as legal, compliance and governance professionals working with UAE companies.

The Venue: Dubai Chambers

Dubai Chambers is on Baniyas Road in Deira, overlooking Dubai Creek. The workshop takes place on the 13th floor, so allow a few minutes to check in at reception and take the lift.

The building is close to Union Metro Station, where the Red and Green Lines meet, so it is easy to reach by Metro.

Visitor Tips

Getting There and Parking

Morning traffic into Deira can be heavy, so the Metro is often the quicker option. If you drive, leave extra time to find parking near Baniyas Road.

Group Bookings

Dubai Chambers offers a discount for groups of three or more, which is handy if several colleagues want to attend.

What to Bring

Bring a notebook and any questions about your own company structure. Real examples make the Q&A more useful.

Arrive Early

The session starts at 8:30am. Arriving ten minutes early gives you time to register and grab a coffee.

A clear understanding of your legal duties is one of the best protections a company leader can have. Book your place through Dubai Chambers and spend the morning of 27 October getting up to speed.
