Andrew Thomson
Spear’s Review
‘As a firm, we are the best-connected firm in the region,’ says Andrew Thomson, partner and head of the real estate practice at Al Tamimi & Company. ‘People come to us because we have that level of industry knowledge – local law knowledge combined with Western training.’
The Scottish property lawyer moved to Dubai in 2008 and now works with local and international family funds, celebrities, private clients and real estate firms.
Thomson is not surprised by Dubai’s favourable position as a hub for HNWs looking to purchase prime property compared with other cities. He tells Spear’s: ‘Dubai properties are far better value. You get more bang for your buck.’
