Founder
Born in Jordan, the late Mr. Sabah Beiruti founded Beiruti Attorneys & Counselors at Law in 1962. Among the pioneers of the Jordanian legal profession, he helped shape the practice of law during the country’s formative years. A prominent figure in his own right, he was held in high regard by governmental bodies, the judiciary, and the private sector alike, and his clients included many of the Kingdom’s most distinguished individuals and enterprises. His counsel was valued for its clarity, discretion, and authority, qualities that remain the foundation of the firm and continue to define its practice today.
“Sabah Beiruti is widely recognised for his long history in arbitration and litigation, attracting comments describing him as ‘one of the most prominent litigators.’ He has great experience in construction arbitrations.”

A lawyer of great dedication, he worked alongside Mr. Sabah Beiruti to strengthen the firm’s practice and helped lay the foundations on which it continues to grow. His contribution remains an integral part of the firm’s history and legacy.
