At Suhaila Almarzooqi, we are deeply committed to supporting the UAE community through meaningful initiatives in both Abu Dhabi and Dubai. Our team regularly extends assistance to labour camps by providing essential resources and recognition to workers, while also partnering with local charities to address pressing social issues and enhance the quality of life for residents.
In addition to our charitable initiatives, we actively participate in community events that foster well-being and unity. From joining sporting activities to taking part in the Dubai Fitness Challenge, we promote healthier lifestyles and strengthen team spirit, while reinforcing our connection with the wider community.
Through volunteer work, partnerships, and active engagement, Suhaila Almarzooqi strives to make a lasting and positive impact—reflecting our dedication to the UAE that goes beyond the practice of law.
Since 2015, Suhaila Almarzooqi has been actively engaged in the Dubai Government Legal Affairs Department’s Continuing Legal Professional Development (CLPD) Programme. We are proud to be among the select few law firms chosen to design and deliver Mandatory Training Courses for the more than 3,000 lawyers registered to practice in Dubai. Our contribution has played an important role in the Programme’s success, and we remain committed to supporting its continued growth with our expertise and insight.
The CLPD Programme is a vital initiative designed to raise professional standards, foster excellence, and align Dubai’s legal sector with international best practices. By strengthening confidence in the legal industry, the Programme contributes to positioning Dubai as a leading global legal hub and an attractive destination for business. Beyond economic benefits, it enhances the protection of the public and supports the wider objectives of the UAE’s Vision 2030.
At Suhaila Almarzooqi Advocates & Legal Consultants, diversity, equity, and inclusion are core values that shape our culture and guide our approach to the practice of law. We believe that a diverse and inclusive workplace fosters creativity, strengthens collaboration, and reflects the values of the community we serve.
Our commitment to DEI is reflected in initiatives designed to empower and support our people. For example, we proudly hosted a Diversity & Inclusion client networking series on International Women’s Day, led by the Suhaila Almarzooqi Women’s Network. Featuring renowned art historian Rose Balston, the event provided engaging educational and networking opportunities for women in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, while highlighting our belief in accessibility, inclusion, and the breaking down of barriers.
We are equally proud of our multicultural team, collectively fluent in more than 10 languages, which enriches both our workplace and the services we provide to clients. By embedding DEI into our leadership and daily practices, we strive to create an environment where diversity is celebrated, equity is pursued, and inclusion is lived every day.
Through these ongoing efforts, Suhaila Almarzooqi Advocates & Legal Consultants aims to lead by example, demonstrating that DEI is not simply an aspiration but a continuous journey toward a more equitable and inclusive future.
At Suhaila Almarzooqi, our commitment to the environment and sustainability is a cornerstone of our corporate strategy. We recognize the urgency of today’s environmental challenges and are dedicated to integrating sustainable practices across all areas of our operations. Our offices in Dubai and Abu Dhabi have adopted a range of green initiatives, including reducing paper usage through digitalization, implementing energy-efficient systems, promoting recycling, and minimizing plastic consumption. By embedding these eco-friendly practices, we aim to reduce our environmental footprint while contributing to global efforts to combat climate change. We also encourage our employees to embrace sustainable habits both at work and in their personal lives, fostering a culture of environmental responsibility.
Beyond our internal practices, we actively engage with the wider community to promote sustainability and environmental awareness. Our firm supports and participates in local initiatives such as community clean-up drives and mangrove planting, recognizing the critical role these ecosystems play in the UAE. These efforts are led by our dedicated Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) committee, which continuously seeks new opportunities to create a positive impact.
Through these initiatives, Suhaila Almarzooqi not only strives to operate responsibly but also aims to inspire and lead others in building a more sustainable future for the UAE and beyond.
At Horizons & Co, we believe that diversity drives innovation, fosters resilience and cultivates long-term success. As part of our ongoing commitment to inclusion and sustainability, we are dedicated to supporting women in business by creating an environment where every woman can thrive, lead and contribute meaningfully to our shared success.
