Sahar Farooqi is the Managing Partner of Arbor Law, appointed in 2026 to lead the firm’s next phase of growth. He brings to the role a rare combination of legal practice, firm leadership and strategic transformation experience, having spent the past decade working at the intersection of law, business development and organisational change across some of the legal sector’s most ambitious environments.

Sahar joined Arbor Law in September 2025 as Chief Transformation Officer, working closely with the founding partners on a strategic transformation programme ahead of his appointment as Managing Partner. In that role, he was responsible for refining the firm’s positioning, clarifying its growth strategy and building the operational platform to support the next stage of Arbor’s development.

As Managing Partner, his focus is on execution: driving commercial performance, expanding the client base, growing the team and delivering on the firm’s ambition to demonstrate that there is a better way to provide legal services at the highest level.
