Seven disciplines. One standard.

Criminal law deals with offences against the state and society — from assault and theft to fraud, financial crimes and beyond. In these cases, nothing less than your freedom and reputation is on the line.

Lawyer Omar Al Omar represents both the accused and victims before every criminal court in the Kingdom of Bahrain, from the first police report to the final appeal. Among his results: a full acquittal for a client accused of involuntary manslaughter, upheld by the Lower Criminal Court.

• Defence before all criminal courts and tribunals
• Representation of victims and civil-rights claimants
• Police investigation and public-prosecution attendance
• Bail applications and urgent interventions
• Criminal appeals and cassation

Family and Sharia law governs the most personal chapters of life — marriage, divorce, custody, alimony, dowry and inheritance — under the principles of Islamic Sharia as applied by Bahrain's Sharia courts.

Omar Al Omar advises Muslims and non-Muslims alike, combining firm advocacy with the discretion these matters demand. The Supreme Sharia Court awarded his client a deferred dowry of BHD 8,700 in a divorce-for-harm case he filed and argued.

• Child custody and visitation
• Alimony, dowry and financial rights
• Inheritance division and estate disputes

Civil law is the backbone of private rights: obligations, compensation, property and personal claims between individuals and entities. When agreements collapse, civil litigation restores what is owed.

From damages claims to the defence of unfounded lawsuits, Omar Al Omar has argued civil matters at every level. He persuaded the court to dismiss a BHD 5,000 bad-cheque claim brought against his client and his client's company.

• Compensation and damages claims
• Debt recovery and enforcement
• Property and real-estate disputes
• Defence against civil claims
• Settlement negotiation and mediation

Commercial and financial law covers banking, debt transactions, company disputes, cheques and everything in between. In business, a single clause can be worth thousands of dinars.

Omar Al Omar advises banks, companies and investors, and litigates when advice is not enough. He compelled a contracting company to pay his client BHD 8,817.560 for breaching contract terms and abandoning agreed construction works.

• Commercial contract disputes
• Cheque and negotiable-instrument cases
• Banking, lending and debt restructuring

Labour law governs the rights and duties of employers and employees: contracts, wages, benefits, safety, discrimination, termination and collective rights.

Whether you are an employee denied your dues or an employer facing a claim, Omar Al Omar has litigated across sectors. The High Labour Court ordered a company to pay his client BHD 4,110.528 in labour dues; another client was awarded BHD 4,000 for termination without notice.

• Unfair dismissal and arbitrary termination
• End-of-service dues and unpaid wages
• Employment contract drafting and review
• Workplace injury and compensation
• Employer-side defence and compliance

Bahrain's rental market moves fast, and disputes over eviction, unpaid rent, maintenance and contract termination are decided by the specialised Rent Disputes Committee under the Rent Law.

Omar Al Omar represents landlords and tenants alike — filing and defending eviction claims, recovering arrears, and drafting tenancy agreements that prevent tomorrow's dispute today.

• Eviction claims and defences
• Rent arrears recovery
• Tenancy contract drafting and registration
• Maintenance and deposit disputes
• Commercial and residential tenancies

The strongest legal position is the one you never have to argue in court. Sound formation documents, watertight contracts and precise legal memorandums protect a business before trouble starts.
