NOTE:
There is no requirement under Qatar Law for a lawyer to represent you in Court. You may, if you wish, conduct your own case or, with the permission of the Court, appoint, by Power of Attorney, someone to act on your behalf. If you do act for yourself it is advisable to take a competent translator with you, as the proceedings will be in Arabic.
