Habiba Saad

I am an associate in the Dispute Resolution Group in our Paris office. I advise our clients on dispute management and resolution strategies in commercial and investment arbitration matters across sectors and through the full life cycle of a dispute.

I joined the arbitration team at Bird & Bird in 2023, where I have been assisting local, regional, and international clients in arbitration disputes across the construction, energy, waste management, and sports sectors. My experience includes advising on institutional arbitrations under ICC, DIAC, CAIP, and ICSID rules.

Before joining Bird & Bird, I completed internships at prestigious law firms in Cairo and Paris, where I developed my skills in legal research, focusing on French and Middle Eastern jurisdictions.

I hold a Master's degree in International Economic Law from Paris 1 – Panthéon Sorbonne University, where I also earned a Master's in International Business Law and a Bachelor's degree in Law.

Fluent in Arabic, English, and French, I am well-equipped to navigate cross-cultural legal challenges and provide effective solutions to our clients.
