About Khaled Aun

Disputes destroy value, relationships, and focus. My role is to end them decisively — or prevent them entirely.

I bring clarity to chaotic situations. When founders clash, partnerships fracture, or deals go wrong, I help my clients see the full picture, understand their leverage, and execute a strategy that protects what matters most.

Most business disputes don't need to go to court. They need someone who can diagnose the real problem, map the risks, and negotiate from strength. When litigation is necessary, I bring a commercial litigation background and the strategic discipline to see it through.

I don't sell volume legal work. I take on matters where judgment and strategy materially change the outcome.
