Highlighting the ongoing cooperation between the nations, Lord Wolfson said,“I have been delighted to learn more about the work of the Qatar International Court and Dispute Resolution Centre and to meet representatives of the UK and Qatari legal sectors. The legal sector and the rule of law are the foundations for global trade. A close cooperative relationship with Qatar and the Gulf more generally is a priority for the UK Government.”

Specialising in the resolution of civil and commercial disputes, the Qatar International Court is a key contributor to Qatar's onshore judicial system. Its litigation and mediation services for individuals and businesses in Qatar and abroad support the country's economic development aspirations.
