About

Hejazi Law Firm

I am Ahmad Hejazi, a lawyer admitted to the Rabat Bar. The core practice of the firm is business law — company formation, commercial contracts, corporate governance, commercial litigation, and real-estate and investment work for companies operating in or entering the Moroccan market.

Alongside that, the firm holds a distinct practice in criminal defence, extradition and international judicial cooperation. I contribute to Extradition Hub, an international extradition case-law platform.

A substantial part of the work involves foreign clients and their counsel abroad, across more than one legal system. The firm works in Arabic, French and English.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can a foreign company be set up in Morocco without a local partner?

In most sectors, yes — a company may be wholly foreign-owned. What decides the outcome in practice is the form you choose (SARL or SA), the registered office, the declaration to the Office des Changes, and the tax and social registrations that follow. I handle the sequence and remain your contact in Rabat afterwards.

Can you assist a family member who has been arrested?

Yes, and this should not wait. Contact the firm as soon as you learn of the arrest — the first hours shape what follows.

Do you act as local counsel for law firms abroad?

Regularly. I provide opinions on Moroccan law, statements on the state of the law and practice, and joint representation alongside foreign counsel.

Need a lawyer in Morocco?

Tell me what you are facing and I will tell you, plainly, whether I can help.
