Summary
In a costs assessment judgment by Mr. Umar Azmeh, Registrar of the Qatar Financial Centre Civil and Commercial Court, the Defendant, MBG Corporate Services LLC, was awarded QAR 30,000 as reasonable costs, despite the Claimant, Claire Holloway, being initially awarded QAR 6,586 for unauthorized salary deductions. The court criticized the Claimant's conduct and ordered her to pay 50% of the Defendant's costs. The Defendant's conduct of deducting 50% of their legal fees unilaterally was deprecated. The QAR 30,000 fee was deemed reasonable considering the work done and proportionality to the QAR 200,000 claimed by the Claimant.
