Matthew Francis Inc is a boutique law firm that is characterized more by the clients it represents rather than the range of services it provides. Although the firm’s clientele are drawn principally from the public sector, the firm has a growing base of private sector corporate clients.
The firm offers a full range of services in most areas of legal practice, including niche areas such as Town Planning Law, Public Sector Law, Procurement Law, and Labour Law.
Since its establishment, the firm has expanded quite rapidly and is, at present, one of the largest wholly owned and managed black law firms in KwaZulu-Natal.
All the directors are from previously disadvantaged backgrounds. In addition, the vast majority of the directors are classified as “youth”.
The firm has recently achieved a Level 1 B-BBEE Contributor rating, making it one of a very few law firms in the country to achieve this accolade.
