Infrastructure development is the main catalyst for growth on the African continent. As a truly African law firm, we have a deep appreciation of this context and the nuances of each country in which we operate.

Our dedicated and highly regarded project and energy team members are market leaders who work with top clients on highly complex cross-border infrastructure projects in specialist areas such as energy, oil and gas, rail, roads and ports, mine and resource development, public private partnerships and municipal infrastructure.

Our key differentiator is that our feet are planted firmly on African soil. Recognised as one of the larger project development advisory teams across Africa, our credible team has a depth of capacity and the ability to provide flexible, cost-effective solutions.

We are not only legal experts; we also understand the project development and financing dynamic, and have the commercial savvy and technical expertise to undertake a broad spectrum of project development work in an African context.

Recent work highlights:

• Structuring and financing of the first industrial scale solar photovoltaic power plant in Lesotho for a consortium of international developers. 
• Financing of four solar parks with an installed capacity of 300 MW on a portfolio basis under round four of the South African Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement (REIPPP) Programme.
