Local Insights

It's not just about the law. Local networking, advice and assistance are essential when venturing into unknown territory.

Dealing with legal or commercial matters in many African countries requires an intimate knowledge of local custom, practice and language. It is also vital to have necessary contacts in key positions in government or quasi-government institutions.

The challenges of doing business in Africa include the problems of under development (for example the lack of infrastructure, skills development and poverty) and dealing with local laws, business practices as well as differing languages and cultures.
Of course all business (particularly cross border transactions) involves an element of risk and the unknown. However with proper planning and advice these risks can be minimised.
Through the Lex Africa network you have access to a pool of highly skilled and reputable lawyers. These lawyers have one vision: to drive business growth in Africa through best legal practice.

Clients who are referred to a Lex Africa member firm can be confident they are dealing with a leading practice in that country. These lawyers are highly regarded for their knowledge and experience.
