HAJJI Law Firm

Amin HAJJI has since 1984 been Professor of Law at the Faculty of Law and Economics of Casablanca Ain-Chok, where his main expertise relates to international trade and finance law and to business law in general. He is the founding member of HAJJI Law Firm which he established in 1996. During the last two decades, the firm has worked as an independent Moroccan entity of Moroccan lawyers educated at the Kingdom’s universities. The firm provides legal services primarily to international investors in major investment projects under development in Morocco, including among others, the Tanger-Med maritime port, the renewable energy projects such as the Noor Ouarzazate solar plants or the Khalladi wind farm project. The firm is also involved in international financing of the Moroccan economy through the issuing of Eurobonds, with international private and public funds, for the financing or the refinancing of multiple aircrafts for Moroccan public and private airlines; and merger & acquisition transactions with companies undergoing restructuring. In addition, the firm represents its international clients before Moroccan courts and in national and international arbitral tribunals.
As a lawyer acting as a counsel or arbitrator in commercial litigation submitted to international arbitration, Amin Hajji along with other lawyers in 2020 founded the MIZAN Arbitration Centre which offers a fully digital platform. This platform works in Arabic, English and French languages and through the addition of an AI tool which is still under development. The Centre will focus on the African continent’s laws, Moroccan law, the laws of the 17 OHADA countries (Congo RD, Benin, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, the Central African Republic, Chad, Comoros, Congo, Côte d'Ivoire, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Mali, Niger, Senegal and Togo) and laws of North Africa. MIZAN will offer a predictive legal tool facility for all users of the platform giving the public access to these laws. At present, Amin Hajji is the acting president of the MIZAN Arbitration Court.
In 2010 Amin Hajji became a founding member of the Aerial Network of African Lawyers which specializes in aircraft financing and holds regular seminars in various African cities with the participation of leading global practitioners within aircraft financing.
