DLA Piper has laid off eight associates in Dubai, equating to around 8 percent of the office's fee earners.
The firm blamed the cuts on reduced demand from clients, with the job losses affecting lawyers in the corporate, finance and projects practices.
Regional managing partner for the Middle East David Church said: "We have been working with our colleagues on a number of alternative solutions in order to minimize the total number of job losses, however we still need to realign our employee headcount in this market."
