The Firm and its aims

Qurnawi Legal Consultancy & Advocates (مكتب القرناوي للأستشارات القانونية والمحاماة) known as QC Law Firm opened for business in January 2014. Despite being new, the principal lawyer behind it has huge experience both locally and internationally. Indeed, Zainab Al Qurnawi is unique in that she is one of the very few lawyers dually qualified both in Iraq and England/Wales thus understanding both the common law and the civil law concepts. She has also held positions both in-house and with international law firms, giving her a detailed understanding of the needs of businesses.

The opening of QC Law Firm represents an exciting opportunity for the firm to establish itself on the ground within Iraq and to provide an extremely high standard of professionalism in all legal aspects.

We appreciate that in the fast moving world of commerce, clients want quick but accurate and informative responses to their requests. Our aim is to turn the work round with the minimum of delay in a pragmatic and thoughtful way for the benefit of our clients.

We also aim to meet the client on each and every occasion either in Iraq or in the UAE because we believe that by getting to know our clients’ modus operandi this will enhance the quality of the advice rendered.

One of the best qualities a lawyer can have is to listen to what the client wants. We listen and then react responsibly and carefully.

Our ultimate goal is to be pragmatic and commercial. It is pointless providing you with all our knowledge on a specific subject if it is irrelevant. What we believe you are looking for is tailor made advice for a particular set of circumstances.

Sister Company

QC Law Firm specializes on all aspects of Iraqi laws and works closely with its sister company in the UAE, Quranwi Legal Consultancy FZC, which is owned and headed by both Zainab Al Qurnawi & Paul Turner.
