Feulner Returns to Chadbourne & Parke as Special Counsel

The international law firm of Chadbourne & Parke LLP announced today Gary R. Feulner has rejoined the firm as senior counsel in the Dubai office. Feulner headed the firm’s former Abu Dhabi office from 1984 to 1990.

Feulner also worked for Chadbourne in New York, Washington, Saudi Arabia, and Dubai/Sharjah before moving to Abu Dhabi. More recently, Feulner served for more than 18 years as general counsel of SHUAA Capital psc, a Dubai-based investment bank.

A veteran practitioner in the United Arab Emirates, his experience includes extensive international transactional and financial services work, such as private equity, mutual funds, public offerings and securities brokerage, as well as regulatory, banking, litigation, bankruptcy, employment and general corporate law.

“We are pleased to welcome Gary back to the firm,” said Chadbourne Managing Partner Charles K. O’Neill. “He knows the UAE legal market inside and out and his return will benefit our clients, especially those in the capital markets and private equity fields.”

Chadbourne returned to the UAE in 2007 making more readily available to clients in the Middle East the firm’s strong practices in energy, project finance and cross-border acquisitions. The head of the Dubai office, Daniel J. Greenwald, has known and worked with Feulner for over 30 years and was earlier responsible for recruiting him as general counsel at SHUAA Capital.

“I am extremely happy to have Gary back at Chadbourne,” said Greenwald. “We will benefit from his broad general experience and insight into local and regional legal and regulatory issues, and from his in-house perspective. More specifically, he strengthens our capital markets and private equity experience in the region, as well as our overall corporate know-how.”
