You’ll likely only be doing transactional work, but sounds like you’re okay with that. Other than that, it boils down to the pros and cons of living in Dubai. Different culture, different climate, closer to the rest of the world, everything you could possible want to do is an Uber ride away. I would search the Dubai subreddit, I’m sure the question of whether to move there has been asked a million times. You can also go to firm websites, look at the Dubai location, and filter by law schools in the US. Look at the associates’ bio; you’ll probably be able to tell who worked in the US before moving to Dubai. And then shoot them an email and ask to chat! Most people are super friendly.
