Women in Law Dubai Roundtable: Succeeding in Law Without the Perfect CV | Ep. 50
Episode 50
Thursday, 5 February, 2026
In this episode of The Expats in Dubai Show, Amber Waheed hosts an honest conversation about building a legal career in Dubai without a perfect academic start, flawless CV, or the traditional advantages often assumed in law.The discussion moves beyond titles to explore competence over credentials, confidence over grades, how women are perceived by clients, the psychology of authority, burnout at senior levels, the impact of social media on professional credibility, and why Gen Z may quietly reshape the profession. It’s a grounded look at law as a long game — and proof that success doesn’t require a flawless beginning.Joining Amber are Fiona Robertson (General Counsel, OSN), Marie Chowdhry (Partner, Pinsent Masons), Chrissie Wolfe (Partner, Nexa), and Charlotte Songwiqi (Al Tamimi). Four women with very different journeys, all now working at the top of Dubai’s legal profession. 📺 To watch the full video version, visit AmberWaheedOfficial on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9L9wlP0kUus&t=3015sThank you for listening!
