Group Head of Legal
Mohamed Sabri is the Group Head of Legal of Driven Group, a diversified real estate platform comprising Driven Properties, one of the UAE's most awarded and largest real estate brokerages; Lamar Holding, the Group's property development arm with over USD 5 billion in active gross development value; Driven Property & Asset Management, which manages more than 8,000 units across the UAE and provides owners association services; a real estate investment portfolio with co-invested special purpose vehicles holding approximately USD 1 billion in assets; and a venture portfolio of more than 15 minority investments.
Mohamed brings more than twelve years of legal practice at the intersection of real estate, construction, and corporate law, built across some of the region's most prominent developers.
Before joining Driven, Mohamed held senior in-house counsel positions at DAMAC Group and Al-Futtaim Carillion, where he developed deep expertise in FIDIC and construction contracts for large-scale development projects, contract management, and arbitration.
His courtroom and advisory experience extends across the UAE courts and the DIFC Courts, with additional cross-border work in Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Qatar, and Oman — a regional footprint that gives him a sharp, practical understanding of how legal risk plays out across different markets.
Today, Mohamed's practice covers the full lifecycle of real estate law: structuring and negotiating high-value sale and purchase agreements, leasing and property management, brokerage and agency arrangements, and joint ventures, underpinned by the construction and arbitration expertise that distinguishes his background.
Known for advice that is precise, commercially grounded, and delivered with clear recommendations, Mohamed is a trusted partner to the business at every stage of a deal.
