In Practice
Jurdi & Co represents Lebanese businesses, foreign investors, and diaspora clients before customs authorities, ministries, municipalities, and regulatory agencies. The work centers on four recurring needs: securing business licenses, permits, and regulatory filings across sectors; managing document legalization and attestation for cross-border transactions; advising on sector-specific compliance with the customs, health, and environmental authorities that govern each industry; and representing clients in administrative disputes, including challenges to government decisions and penalties.
The practice operates in Arabic, French, and English, and its Downtown Beirut office is close to the ministries, customs authorities, and municipal offices where these filings and disputes are handled.
