Rawan Noubani is a Jordanian lawyer and founding partner of RN Law (Al Noubani & Partner), a boutique law firm based in Amman. With more than 17 years of legal experience across corporate, regulatory, banking, insurance, and commercial matters, she advises foreign investors, multinational businesses, and Jordanian sponsors on market entry, investment structuring, regulatory approvals, and transaction execution in Jordan.
Rawan Noubani holds a Bachelor of Laws (LL.B) from the Applied Science University in Amman and was admitted to the Jordan Bar in 2008. Her early legal career included advisory roles within the banking sector, including positions at Jordan Kuwait Bank and Société Générale – Jordan, where she developed practical experience in banking operations, financial regulation, credit-related matters, and litigation involving financial institutions.
Before founding RN Law, she advised on a broad range of corporate, commercial, and regulatory matters and held senior legal professional advisory roles. She has also served in leadership and advisory capacities within professional services environments, strengthening her exposure to cross-border business, compliance, and transactional practice.
As founder of RN Law, she leads a practice on corporate and commercial law, foreign investment, technology-related projects, insurance, and dispute prevention. She has also been appointed as an arbitrator in insurance-related disputes.
As a lawyer advising on foreign investment matters in Jordan, Rawan Noubani supports clients throughout the full investment lifecycle – from market entry and legal structuring to licensing, regulatory engagement, investment documentation, and post-establishment compliance. Her work includes advising on corporate formation, foreign ownership consideration, investment incentives, joint ventures, shareholder arrangements, project development, commercial contracting, labour structuring, and exit strategies.
She advises clients investing in Jordan across a range of regulated and strategic sectors, including banking & finance, insurance, fintech & technology, healthcare, real estate development, and renewable energy. Her experience enables investors to assess legal feasibility at an early stage, navigate licensing and approval processes efficiently, and structure transactions in a way that is commercially practical and enforceable under Jordanian law.
What distinguishes Rawan Noubani’s practice is the combination of regulatory understanding, transactional drafting, and dispute-aware legal strategy. Her prior experience within financial institutions provides practical insight into investor expectations, operational constraints, and risk allocation, while her arbitration and contentious work strengthen her ability to identify legal and commercial issues before they escalate into disputes.
RN Law’s experience in legal-tech, IT contracts, ts, and digital projects further strengthens its value to foreign investors operating in technology-driven sectors or launching digital and platform-based businesses in Jordan.
Rawan Noubani has participated in legal and regulatory initiatives and has contributed to international legal and policy-related data collection exercises involving Jordanian law and practice. Her work has included advisory and analytical contributions in areas intersecting with investment, dispute resolution, and regulatory practice.
Her appointment as an arbitrator in insurance-related disputes reflects practical experience in contentious commercial and insurance matters, complementing her transactional and advisory work.
Due to client confidentiality and the nature of private legal mandates, many representative matters are not publicly disclosed. However, her practice includes advising foreign and domestic clients on market entry, regulatory negotiations, corporate structuring, and commercial dispute prevention.
Jordan offers meaningful opportunities for foreign investors across infrastructure, technology, healthcare, energy, financial services, education, and real estate-related sectors. At the same time, investment projects often require careful legal planning due to sector-specific licensing regimes, foreign ownership considerations, land-use restrictions, employment obligations, and multi-agency regulatory approvals.
Investors entering the Jordanian market must also assess issues such as investment incentives, repatriation planning, governance structure, tax coordination, operational approvals, and contractual enforceability. Sound legal structuring at the outset is essential to reduce execution risk, avoid delays, and preserve commercial flexibility throughout the life of the investment.
Foreign Investment transactions in Jordan often involve a combination of corporate, regulatory, contractual, and operational considerations that cannot be addressed through standard documentation alone. Effective legal counsel requires not only technical knowledge of Jordanian law but also the ability to anticipate regulatory bottlenecks, negotiate practical protections, and coordinate execution across multiple stakeholders.
Her combination of in‑house banking experience, regulatory advisory roles, and arbitration work means clients benefit from technically rigorous legal structuring and commercially calibrated negotiation — a combination that is particularly important in regulated sectors and complex cross‑border arrangements.
Rawan Noubani advises international investors entering the Jordan market, regional corporates expanding across the Levant, project sponsors in energy, healthcare, and technology, financial institutions, and insurers. She also works with Jordanian promoters seeking foreign partners, cross‑border joint ventures, and technology companies requiring bespoke IT and data‑protection contractual frameworks.
Her clients value concise risk analysis, practical implementation roadmaps, and dispute‑aware drafting that preserves commercial options while ensuring compliance with Jordanian legal requirements.
Businesses and investors considering entry into Jordan require legal advice that is commercially informed, locally grounded, and execution-focused. Rawan Noubani advises on investment structuring, regulatory approvals, investment incentives, transaction documents, and legal risk management throughout the investment lifecycle.
Her combined experience in banking, corporate and regulatory advisory work, arbitration, insurance, and technology-related matters enables her to support investors through both the opportunities and the legal complexities of doing business in Jordan.
As a recognised practitioner who combines banking, corporate, arbitration, and technology law experience, Rawan Noubani stands out as a Foreign Investment lawyer in Jordan capable of guiding clients through both the opportunities and the legal complexities of investing in the Hashemite Kingdom.
