Dubai, 2 February 2016 - Dentons has become the first law firm in the Middle East to achieve the internationally recognised ISO 22301 certification for business continuity management.

ISO certification, established by the British Standards Institution, specifies requirements to plan and prepare for disruptive incidents, ensuring that appropriate measures are in place for business continuity.

Certification to this international standard demonstrates that the Middle East offices of Dentons are able to continue providing a first-class service to its clients, no matter how challenging or unexpected the circumstances.

This ISO 22301 certification complements the information security standard, ISO 27001, already achieved by the firm in the UK, making Dentons a global leader in terms of underpinning its legal services offering with a high level of resilience, confidence and surety.
