Legal Specialist
Al Ramsat Contracting Company · Saudi Arabia
This is where my construction and contracting focus took shape. I review, negotiate, and draft the contracts and legal instruments that protect the company's commercial position — catching liability and compliance risk in the language before it becomes a problem on-site. When a claim or variation order comes in, I'm the one interpreting the applicable laws, regulations, and precedent to tell the business what its actual exposure is, not just what the contract says on paper.
I don't work in isolation from the business — I sit with internal teams and stakeholders to work through complex issues together, and I make sure every piece of documentation that leaves our side actually meets regulatory and contractual muster. And when a dispute can't be resolved at the table, I represent the company directly in court proceedings, hearings, and negotiations, building the arguments and documentation that get us to a resolution.
