Why Level Up LEX
Here’s What Some of Our Clients Say About Our Team
Running a multimillion business requires surrounding myself with intelligent, insightful and knowledgeable people; Maher is all of this.
Mohannad Ghazaleh - Managing PartnerProfessional, responsive, and commercially sharp. I have collaborated with Maher on various projects in the UAE, and he consistently provided excellent legal support making complex legal matters clear and manageable. Highly recommended.
Firas Attereh - Managing PartnerDuring my time as IMI CEO, I worked closely with Maher during a period of rapid growth. He brought a very strong mix of legal judgment and a commercial knowledge. His approach and solutions were critical in helping the business move quickly while managing risk appropriately. Maher was consistently responsive, pragmatic, and dependable, and his contribution to the company’s growth during that phase was remarkable.
Nart BouranI have known Maher professionally through his work supporting AI Ain News and CNN Business Arabic. He brings sound judgment, clarity, and composure to matters where editorial, reputational, and business considerations intersect. He also has a strong grasp of governance helping put the right decision-making and accountability frameworks in place without slowing the business down. His advice is direct and actionable, and he helps teams make confident decisions under pressure. I would recommend Maher for senior-level counsel in media and fast-moving commercial environments.
