Our Story
From a Law Office to an Integrated Firm
Our office was founded in 1986 and has worked in legal advice and litigation ever since.
It grew from a traditional practice and in 2013 became Al-Manara for Integrated Legal Solutions, bringing the experience of its founders together with modern ways of working.
Our Vision
To be a trusted legal partner for our clients in Jordan, offering clear and precise service. We are equipping our office with everything arbitration and mediation sessions need: dedicated halls, a session clerk, video recording, hybrid and remote sessions, and secure keeping of the minutes.
Our Mission
To help our clients avoid disputes through sound contracts, clear legal safeguards and good governance; to prepare the case well when litigation cannot be avoided; and to turn to mediation and arbitration when they are the better way to resolve a dispute.
Our Approach
Prevention First, Then the Right Remedy
We start with prevention, because a dispute that can be avoided costs less than any case.
Prevention
Well-drafted contracts and legal safeguards that keep disputes from arising.
Governance
Sound internal rules and procedures that protect the company and strengthen its position if a matter reaches court.
Litigation
When litigation cannot be avoided, we prepare the case carefully and follow it through to enforcement.
Mediation and Arbitration
Where they suit the client better, as they can save time and cost.
Why Al-Manara
A True Extension of Your Management
We work alongside your management as part of it, focusing on what protects your interests and saves your time.
A Complete Legal Department
Handling the company's contracts, compliance and cases, and preparing and recording board and general assembly meetings.
Clear Follow-Up on Your Files
We keep you informed as your files progress, including through the Client Portal.
Following Rights Through to Recovery
Our work does not stop at the judgment: we follow its enforcement and the recovery of what is owed.
Support for Startups
From incorporation and founders' agreements to funding rounds and intellectual property protection.
Compliance and Quality Systems
Preparing internal regulations and procedures to meet the law and the requirements of quality certifications.
Three Working Languages
We work in Arabic, English and Russian, and when a matter requires it, with certified legal translators and law firms in other countries.
Legal and Financial Integration
Legal Decisions and Their Financial Effect, Together
A legal decision cannot be separated from its financial and tax effect: a weak contract can create tax liabilities, and an accounting error can turn into a dispute.
That is why, working with certified auditors and tax experts, we offer integrated legal and financial services as part of our advanced services.
Unified Compliance
Reviewing the company's files from the legal and financial sides together.
Before Tax and Customs Authorities
Preparing objections and defences, and joint legal and financial opinions.
Due Diligence
Legal and financial reports for acquisitions and funding rounds.
Working Standards and Judicial Excellence
Careful Preparation for Every Case
We prepare every case before going to court, and we prepare our clients for what lies ahead.
Studying the File
Studying the facts of the case and the applicable law before taking any step.
Preparing the Evidence
Preparing documentary, witness and expert evidence, and anticipating the other side's defences.
Rehearsal in the Mock Courtroom
Rehearsing with clients and witnesses in a room that recreates a courtroom, so they can give testimony with confidence.

Our Halls
Arbitration, Mediation & Mock Trial Halls
Our office has a three-member arbitration hall, a five-member arbitration hall, a mediation hall and a mock courtroom, equipped with computers, with added services such as a clerk, video recording and hybrid or remote sessions. They can be booked online.
Our Ambition
To Grow Through Our Clients' Trust
We aim to be among the Jordanian law firms known for serving the business sector in three languages, and to keep bringing law, finance and digital tools together for our clients.
