The Lawyer With a
Scientist's Mind

I began my journey in health sciences and forensic science — building an academic foundation in analytical chemistry and toxicology that most lawyers simply don't have. That scientific precision became my greatest legal asset.

After earning my LL.M. in International Sports Law from CEU Cardenal Herrera University in Valencia and completing an internship at Pinto Ruiz & Del Valle — a Tier-1 sports law firm in Barcelona — I returned to Saudi Arabia with a mission: to give professional football clubs access to the caliber of legal protection previously reserved for European clubs.

Today I serve as Lead Counsel for a portfolio of Saudi professional clubs, representing them before the FIFA Football Tribunal and the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).
