Become a Dubai Lawyer

Becoming a consultant lawyer with Mezzle means operating as an independent practitioner while benefiting from the credibility, systems and support of an established law firm. You retain control over your clients, work and time, while sharing fees rather than billing targets.

You are based out of our Once Central Dubai office, working within a regulated, professional environment that reflects international best practice. Mezzle provides the framework — branding, compliance, office facilities and operational support — so you can focus on practising law and developing your client base.

Dubai offers a unique combination of global clients, tax efficiency, and lifestyle advantages that are increasingly difficult to find in traditional UK firms. Many senior lawyers reach a point where partnership politics, billing pressure and limited flexibility no longer align with their personal or professional goals.

A consultant model in Dubai allows you to keep the quality of work you enjoy, increase your earning potential, and gain genuine control over how and when you practise — all while living in one of the world’s most dynamic international cities.

Mezzle provides a structured, best-practice pathway for lawyers relocating from the UK to Dubai. From your initial consultation, we guide you through every stage: understanding the consultant model, planning your move, securing the appropriate visa, and setting up day-to-day life in Dubai.We connect you with trusted partners for banking, accommodation and relocation logistics, and ensure your transition is compliant, efficient and stress-free. Our role is to remove uncertainty, reduce friction and provide a professional framework so you can leave traditional practice behind with confidence — and start fee-sharing in Dubai the right way.
