His hire boosts the Muscat-based litigation team to two senior partners, three special counsel, ten associates and four trainees, the largest in the country.

These cases include multijurisdictional and multi-party proceedings, high-value commercial disputes, insolvency proceedings, fraud and asset-tracing, company/joint-venture/partnership disputes, employment litigation and administrative law matters.


He advises clients including multinational corporations, foreign governments/state-owned enterprises, and listed companies, including in the natural-resource and transport sectors.


Mansoor Malik, AMJ’s managing partner and joint head of head of litigation, commented: “We are delighted to welcome Erik to the firm; he brings with him a wealth of top-notch litigation and arbitration experience.


His appointment strengthens our capability to meet the commercial and dispute resolution needs of our commercial, infrastructure, construction and energy clients at a time when disputes are becoming ever more complex against a backdrop of challenging market conditions.”
