Legal Practice Areas
Our Practice Areas
Corporate & Commercial
We advise leading financial institutions, multinational corporations, international agencies, corporate executives and directors in all spheres of corporate and commercial transactions, including but not limited to complex mergers and acquisitions and simple corporate secretarial services.
Tax Services
Tax jurisdictions are constantly evolving in this ever-changing economic environment. Today, governmental efforts to increase or maintain tax revenue levels pose new and difficult challenges for tax planning and dispute resolution for corporations, partnerships, and individuals alike.
Risk Regulation and Compliance
We believe the primary reason clients require lawyers is to mitigate the potential risks in proceeding without legal input. As a firm, we consider risk management and compliance as major keys to avoiding disruptive, large-scale litigation.
Property
Property acquisition and land management presents a frustrating and intricate maze for most Ghanaian and multinational companies alike due to the challenges that attend land title acquisition in Ghana. Individuals are no less spared from these difficulties in the property space.
Litigation and Alternative dispute resolution
We exist to resolve our clients' complex commercial litigation challenges. Commercial disputes particularly are increasingly becoming more difficult to navigate. Expanding international businesses, changing regulatory requirements, increasing corporate scrutiny and complex cross-border transactions are among the drivers. Regardless of origin, the stakes can be very high, with potential global ramifications.

Without a proper strategy for entering into any new market, FDI strategy review and advisory can become so crucial to businesses because if not done properly it can expose FDI transactions to intense legal challenges and increased costs.
