About

I specialise in mergers and acquisitions, business restructuring, and regulatory compliance, working with clients across industries such as property, petroleum, energy, financial services, mining, telecoms, and agriculture. My focus is on structuring complex transactions, negotiating commercial agreements, and ensuring compliance with regulatory frameworks. My experience includes handling BEE transactions, competition law matters, and high-value corporate deals. I have advised on major takeovers and facilitated due diligence processes, helping businesses manage legal and operational challenges with precision. In my role as Regional Vice-Chair of TerraLex for Africa and the Middle East, I engage with legal professionals worldwide, ensuring clients benefit from both local expertise and international legal insights.
