Family Office in the UAE
In the UAE, a family office is an organization created to oversee the financial, personal, and business matters of one family. It can offer services such as investment management, tax advisory, legal counsel, administrative assistance, and even education for family members. Family offices in the UAE are frequently established within the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) or the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM).
Objective
Family offices offer tailored assistance to ultra-high-net-worth families, helping them to oversee their wealth and legacy.
Services
These entities can manage a broad array of responsibilities, such as investment management, financial planning, estate management, philanthropy, and governance within the family.
Structure
Family offices can be organized as single-family offices (SFOs) or multi-family offices (MFOs). SFOs cater to one individual family, whereas MFOs oversee the interests of several families.
Regulation
The UAE has established regulatory frameworks for family offices, specifically within the DIFC and ADGM, which ensure a secure and transparent operating environment.

Why does it matter?
Wealth without structure is vulnerable. Without a sound legal and governance framework, family fortunes can be fragmented, mismanaged, or lost to disputes and tax inefficiencies. A professionally established family office provides not just control and protection, but also clarity, continuity, and cohesion, ensuring wealth lasts beyond one generation. In today’s volatile geopolitical and regulatory landscape, it is crucial to future-proof your wealth through jurisdictionally sound and globally relevant structures.
A family office serves as a proactive, centralized command center that aligns your assets, values, and legacy under one coherent structure. It enables families to institutionalize decision-making, avoid fragmentation of wealth across heirs, and implement long-term strategies for succession, philanthropy, and growth. By integrating legal, financial, and operational foresight, a well-structured family office becomes the cornerstone of multi-generational resilience, allowing wealth to evolve while staying protected.

What Sets Us Apart?
Multi-Jurisdictional Expertise
At Finjuris Global, we bring extensive experience in cross-border legal structuring, enabling families to optimize their wealth across multiple jurisdictions. Our team is proficient in UAE family office regulations (especially within DIFC and ADGM), and well-versed in international frameworks across Europe (Luxembourg, Switzerland, Malta), the Caribbean (BVI, Cayman Islands), and Asia (Singapore, Hong Kong). We ensure that your family office is not only compliant within the UAE but also seamlessly integrated with global legal systems, allowing for robust asset protection, tax efficiency, and global mobility of wealth.
Legacy & Succession Focus
Preserving wealth is only part of the mission; transferring it across generations is what defines a successful family office. We specialize in creating tailored succession strategies that respect your family’s values and vision. This includes the formation of trusts, private foundations, living wills, testamentary plans, and family constitutions, all backed by enforceable legal instruments. Our approach balances control and flexibility, ensuring that beneficiaries are empowered while the integrity of your legacy is protected. Whether it’s generational wealth transfer, philanthropic goals, or business succession, we ensure that your structure stands the test of time.
Discreet & Confidential Engagement
At Finjuris, discretion is not an afterthought; it’s a principle. We understand the sensitive nature of family wealth, personal matters, and high-value assets. Our processes are designed to maintain strict confidentiality, with secure communication protocols, limited access frameworks, and data governance controls that prevent unauthorized exposure. Whether managing private trusts, resolving intra-family matters, or structuring offshore entities, we operate with complete confidentiality to safeguard your family’s privacy, reputation, and internal dynamics across all jurisdictions.
Digital Asset & Modern Portfolio Integration
Modern family portfolios go beyond traditional real estate and securities. We help families integrate digital assets, including cryptocurrencies, NFTs, tokenized real estate, and other blockchain-based investments, into their family office structure. This includes wallet security planning, tax-efficient holding strategies, asset tracking, and regulatory risk assessments for digital wealth. We also unify these with conventional investments such as global equities, private businesses, and luxury assets, providing a 360-degree portfolio view under one governance framework. Our forward-looking structures accommodate innovation without sacrificing legal and financial integrity.
Ongoing Governance Support
Building a family office is just the first step; maintaining governance and compliance is where long-term success lies. We offer continuing support in areas such as family board formation, dispute resolution planning, fiduciary advisory, and compliance monitoring with evolving regulations (AML, UBO, ESR, FATCA, CRS). We also help implement performance oversight mechanisms, stakeholder protocols, and decision-making models that align with family dynamics. Our goal is to ensure that the family office not only serves its founders but remains effective and relevant for future generations, while staying aligned with shifting legal, financial, and geopolitical realities.
