Gordon Barr
Spear’s Review
Described as ‘super plugged-in when it comes to legislative change and other issues related to employment’, Gordon Barr is a partner in the employment and incentives team at Al Tamimi.
Specialising in matters relating to benefits, compensation and workforce integration following mergers and acquisitions, he works cohesively with his clients to find appropriate solutions while navigating complex regional employment laws.
‘The requirements of [my] role necessitate a solid understanding of the local UAE labour laws and an understanding of the operation of the legislation as it affects each of the various free zones within the region,’ he said.
Barr is also a DIFC registered practitioner with full rights of audience.
