After returning to Morocco in 2005, Mehdi joined the family business and founded DLF Avocats, a boutique law firm specialized in international transactions (M&A, project financing, dispute resolution) with a focus on mining and energy, including renewables.

The DLF team is composed of 20 multilingual skilled lawyers, paralegals and support members whose main concern is flexibility and attention to the client’s need.

Mehdi has also held positions in several institutions, as a board member of the Belgian and Luxemburg Chamber of Commerce (CCBLM) from 2012 to 2022 as well as Vice President of the German Chamber of Commerce from 2013 to 2019 and is still a board member of the same chamber.

Mehdi is very active in the international and cross-border transactions with a strong presence in the Middle East and Africa. Thanks to this input, DLF is the privileged partner acting as local and regional counsel for several foreign law firms.
