Administrative Law Lawyers in Riyadh
Administrative cases are disputes in which one of the parties is a government body or public authority, and they fall under the jurisdiction of the administrative courts of the Board of Grievances (Diwan Al-Mazalim). Examples include challenging an administrative decision, claiming employment rights as a government employee, seeking compensation for harm caused by the act of an administrative body, and disputes relating to government contracts and tenders.
Because Riyadh is home to a large number of government bodies, employees and businesses contracting with them, many of its residents and companies need a lawyer who knows the grievance procedures and the statutory deadlines for filing an administrative claim, since missing these deadlines may cause the right to have the claim heard to lapse. It is advisable for the lawyer to review the disputed decision and the grievance correspondence before taking any step. The lawyer will also determine the appropriate type of claim: a claim to annul a decision differs from a compensation claim or an employment-rights claim in terms of the relief sought and the evidence required. The lawyer also follows the proceedings online through the services provided by the Board of Grievances and keeps you updated as matters progress.

FAQs about administrative law lawyers in Riyadh
When do I need a lawyer for an administrative case?
When a government body issues a decision against you that you consider unlawful, when you have unpaid employment or contractual entitlements with a public body, or when you have suffered harm from an administrative act. A lawyer helps you assess whether a grievance and a claim are worthwhile before the deadlines pass.
Which body hears administrative cases?
The administrative courts of the Board of Grievances hear claims in which an administrative body is a party, as set out in the Board of Grievances Law and the Law of Procedure before it.
What documents should I bring to the first consultation?
Bring a copy of the decision you are objecting to, proof of the date you became aware of it, any grievance you submitted and the response to it, and the relevant contracts or correspondence. Arranging these papers in date order makes it easier for the lawyer to assess your position.
How much does a lawyer charge for administrative cases?
Fees vary according to the nature and complexity of the case and the agreement between you and the lawyer. Make sure the agreement is in writing and sets out the scope of work and the payment method.
