We are excited to announce that we have assisted a leading German solar panel manufacturer in incorporating a subsidiary in Bangladesh. This is a significant milestone for the company, as it will allow it to expand its operations into one of the fastest-growing solar markets in the world.

The company is a global leader in the manufacturing of solar panels, and its decision to establish a subsidiary in Bangladesh is a testament to the country’s attractive investment climate. Bangladesh offers a number of advantages for foreign investors, including a young and growing population, a strategic location, and various tax incentives for renewable projects.

We are pleased to announce that we have successfully resolved a long-standing maritime dispute between the owner of a foreign vessel and the Bangladesh Navy. The vessel collided with a naval frigate in 2017, and the dispute over liability and damages had been ongoing for several years.

The dispute was particularly difficult due to its sensitivity, as it also involved several government departments. We, Rahman’s Chambers, were able to resolve the dispute out of court through a combination of negotiation and mediation, and we are grateful to them and the other reputed foreign law firms HFW and MAR-DIPLO P.C. for their assistance at different stages.

We represented the owner of a foreign vessel and the London P&I Club.
