Eversheds Sutherland has strengthened its Dubai operations by recruiting partner Mike Rainey and newly elevated partner Asal Saghari from King & Spalding. Rainey contributes 20 years of banking and restructuring expertise across the Middle East, while Saghari specializes in conventional and Shari'ah-compliant financing with emphasis on private credit. Their addition brings Eversheds Sutherland International's lateral partner acquisitions to 27 this year, marking an unprecedented level of recruitment.

Rainey spent over two decades at King & Spalding, becoming a partner in 2010 before relocating from London to Dubai. Saghari worked at the same firm for 17 years, achieving counsel status upon her Dubai transfer. Both lawyers bring established regional networks and technical capabilities in corporate finance and lending matters.

The expansion reflects broader regional momentum, with Reed Smith recently adding Bird & Bird's Middle East leader Anders Nilsson and Mishcon de Reya launching dual offices in Dubai and Abu Dhabi under managing partner Christopher Skipper.
