Providing integrated legal services throughout Africa from six offices (Cape Town, Dar es Salaam, Durban, Johannesburg, Kampala & Nairobi) in four countries.
We are legal specialists with unique African knowledge
Our vision is to be acknowledged as the pre-eminent law firm in Africa for corporate, institutional and public sector clients’ most important and complex matters and therefore be the first choice for clients and employees.
As a leading Pan-African law firm we have provided both domestic and cross-border specialist legal services in the fields of corporate law, banking and finance law and dispute resolution, for over a century.
With six offices in four African countries and over 400 specialised lawyers, we are set apart by our geographical reach, independence and the quality of legal services we provide.
We draw on our unique knowledge of the African business environment and in-depth understanding of the socio-political climate to advise clients on a wide range of legal issues. We assist our clients to achieve their objectives – smoothly and efficiently – while minimising the legal and regulatory risks.
Our clients include corporates, multinationals and state-owned enterprises across a range of industry sectors as well as financial institutions and governments.
Our expertise is frequently recognised by independent research organisations. We were named African Legal Adviser of the Year by DealMakers for 2014 and 2015. Our South African office was named South African Law Firm of the Year for 2016 by the Who’s Who Legal. And – in 2015 – we won the African Legal Awards for Competition and Regulatory Team of the Year and IP Team of the Year.
