NEW DELHI: Saudi Attorney Khalid Al-Nowaiser has said his law firm has entered into a strategic alliance with the Indian law firm, Kochhar and Co., to serve the interests of clients doing business in Saudi Arabia and India.

Kochhar and Co. is one of the largest law firms in India and has many international branches, including those in the United States, Singapore and Japan.

Al-Nowaiser commended the efforts made by Saudi Ambassador in India Faisal bin Hassan Trad in developing the relations between the two countries, including the new alliance between the Saudi and Indian law firms.

He said the relationship with Kochhar is the beginning of a “unique partnership between Saudi and Indian law firms in terms of quality and quantity of services.”

Cooperation between the two parties will not be limited to removing legal obstacles only, but will also focus on helping Saudi and Indian businessmen in investments and identifying future opportunities for bilateral joint ventures, he added.

The agreement requires each law firm to send its team to the other’s country to receive training and exchange and gain valuable legal experience. The two firms will strive to serve many multinational corporations, including the 500 largest companies in the world. Al-Nowaiser Law Firm will now be able to represent Indian companies working in the Kingdom. Similarly, Kochhar will represent Saudi companies in India.
