Commentary

"Pekin & Pekin seems the firm of the moment, causing peers to consistently rate it for quality of individuals and overall reputation. An international client says "the firm's lawyers are always willing to stay late, which you don't always get with local counsel". Lead lawyer Ahmed Pekin "is very smart...and has the ability to provide a unique job" says one peer, while a client adds: "He has a good relationship with the government and with everybody...as in he knows what people will think on certain issues."
