Law firms, accountants, corporate service providers and other advisers bring Esquare Legal in when a client’s matter turns on digital-asset regulation, or on a cross-border question in the UAE, Pakistan or Brazil. We work alongside you on the part of the matter that needs specialist input.
Who We Work With
- Law firms whose clients need crypto, tokenization or fintech licensing advice outside the firm’s core practice.
- Accountants, auditors and tax advisers whose clients are entering a regulated digital-asset market.
- Corporate service providers and free zones setting up clients that will need a VASP or payments licence.
- Compliance and RegTech providers, investors and accelerators whose clients or portfolio companies need specialist counsel.
What We Can Take On
- Licensing and market entry: VARA in Dubai, PVARA in Pakistan and BCB authorisation in Brazil.
- Token, RWA and Shariah-compliant structuring.
- Crypto asset recovery, frozen-asset matters and crypto disputes.
- Acquisitions of licensed crypto, payments and FX businesses.
- Fractional General Counsel support for clients or portfolio companies.
- Briefings and training for your team on digital-asset regulation.
How It Works
Engagement
Depending on the matter, the client either engages Esquare Legal directly or we act as co-counsel to your firm. We agree which model applies, who leads, who communicates with the client and how fees are billed before any work begins.
Conflicts and confidentiality
We run a conflict check before any substantive discussion, and share client information only with the client’s consent.
Commercial terms
Commercial terms are agreed per matter and in line with the professional rules that apply to each firm.
