Strategic Expansion Fuels Unified Firm Growth Around the Globe

ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates – Oct. 1, 2025 – Global law firm Greenberg Traurig has launched its 50th office. The firm has become licensed in the Abu Dhabi Global Market, an international financial centre located in Abu Dhabi. The new office continues to expand the firm’s presence in the region, which already includes offices in Dubai and Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, that opened in 2023. Prominent financing and restructuring lawyer Christian Adams, and prominent mergers and acquisitions (M&A) and private equity lawyer Chris Lester both join from Latham & Watkins as co-managing shareholders of Greenberg Traurig’s Abu Dhabi office.

“We celebrate this milestone in Greenberg Traurig’s history knowing that our strategy of organic growth, rather than through mergers or vereins, continues to deliver exceptional results for our clients and the firm worldwide,” said Richard A. Rosenbaum, Executive Chairman of Greenberg Traurig. “Reflecting on our humble beginnings nearly 60 years ago, our intentional, strategic expansion in key financial and government centers — as well as emerging markets — has allowed us to consistently attract top legal talent. Our empowering culture and business model allow us to best serve clients through both local insight and global reach.”
