&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class="cf0"&gt;The LEXPERT Series is an invitation-only breakfast forum bringing together senior legal professionals, in-house counsel, regulators, and business leaders for focused discussions on key legal and regulatory developments shaping the UAE business environment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This edition of the LEXPERT Series, delivered in collaboration with Habib Al Mulla and Partners, brings together leading legal minds to explore one of the most significant developments in the UAE&amp;rsquo;s legal landscape in recent years.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The UAE&amp;rsquo;s new Civil Transactions Code introduces significant changes that reshape legal rights, obligations, and risk allocation across civil and commercial relationships. This expert panel discussion brings together leading practitioners, including Dr. Habib Al Mulla, to examine how the new law compares with the previous Civil Code and what these changes mean in practice.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The seminar will also mark the release of a new comparative commentary authored by Dr. Habib Al Mulla, offering attendees early access to key insights and analysis at a pivotal moment for the UAE legal landscape.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Designed for in-house counsel, private practice lawyers, compliance professionals, and senior decision-makers, this session will provide practical perspectives on how the new Civil Transactions Code is likely to influence contractual relationships, dispute resolution, and risk management going forward.&lt;/p&gt;
