To expand its project practice in Dubai, international law firm Norton Rose Fulbright has re-hired Prakruthi Gowda as a partner.
Led by Mohammed Paracha, the Middle East head of the law firm, Gowda and the team will work in the wider Middle East banking and finance practice and the firm’s global network to advise clients on projects throughout the region.
An experienced professional, Gowda has worked on numerous energy and infrastructure projects worldwide and was involved in several ground-breaking projects in the energy transition sector.
Her expertise lies in advising lenders and sponsors on commercial and financing aspects of energy and infrastructure projects. She also advises financial investors on investments and exits in the energy and infrastructure sector.
Until recently, serving at Clifford Chance, she is licensed to practice both English and New York laws.
Commenting on her addition, Mohammed Paracha remarked, “We’re thrilled that Gowda will join the team and to be able to welcome back a former colleague to the firm. She has excellent experience across projects and sustainable energy, the two major areas for us. Her presence will further strengthen our market-leading practice within the Middle East.”
At this, Gowda responded, “I am delighted to join a firm with a strong focus on the energy and infrastructure space in the Middle East. Norton Rose Fulbright’s platform offers me a great opportunity to grow my practice in this area. My experience in the sector, combined with the existing market-leading practice of the firm, will enable us to provide commercial and practical solutions to clients.”
She added, “In addition, with the firm’s Middle East practice having doubled in size over the past three years, it’s a great period to be returning to the firm and an excellent opportunity to play a part in its rapid, ongoing growth.”
Norton Rose Fulbright offers a full-service practice and has vast experience in energy, infrastructure, financial institutions, government advisory, transport and technology. The lawyers act for government entities, corporates and financial institutions on their domestic and outbound businesses.
