Duane Morris has opened an office in Muscat, Oman, through a joint venture with Al Mashaikhi and Partners Law Firm.

After focusing its expansion on Asia in Singapore and Vietnam and in Latin America via a Mexico City alliance, Duane Morris has moved its sights to the Middle East, opening its first office in that region in an effort to capitalize on the joint commerce between Singapore, Oman and London as well as the countries in the Gulf Cooperation Council.
