Dubai unveils 2026–2028 strategy to strengthen rule of law with multi-sector reforms
Dubai has announced the launch of its new 2026–2028 legal strategy aimed at strengthening the rule of law across the emirate. The initiative, led by the Government of Dubai Legal Affairs Department, is part of a broader effort to modernize legal frameworks and reinforce confidence in Dubai’s judicial ecosystem.
The multi-year strategy focuses on improving legal infrastructure, enhancing regulatory efficiency, and integrating advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence to support judicial processes. Key objectives include bolstering legal compliance across government bodies, increasing transparency and accountability, and fostering institutional excellence.
Under the strategy, Dubai aims to build stronger partnerships and collaborations with local and international legal entities, expand professional training and certifications for legal practitioners, and elevate customer-centric legal services. By elevating institutional readiness and governance standards, the strategy seeks to strengthen Dubai’s competitiveness and resilience within the global legal landscape.
Officials say the reforms reflect Dubai’s commitment to sustainable growth, innovation, and a robust rule-of-law framework that supports economic diversification, foreign investment, and social stability.
