UAE legal eagle holds court at The Hague

A UAE legal expert played a leading role at a global conference on court excellence at The Hague in the Netherlands.

Reem Al Shihhe, the head of human resources and business excellence at the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) Courts, was asked to appear as a panellist on a discussion entitled ‘The International Framework for Court Excellence’ last week - the first UAE female courts professional to be invited to do so.

Ms Al Shihhe said she was “extremely proud” of the invite to the International Association for Court Administration (IACA) meet at The Hague, where she presented to 350 delegates from 45 countries.

“We hope to hear from her again in the future,” said IACA president Jeffrey A Apperson.
