Corporate & Commercial Advisory

Outsourced general counsel for companies, NGOs and high-growth ventures operating in Uganda.

Our Approach

Philosophy

Our Corporate & Commercial practice is the everyday legal engine room for our clients — from incorporation and shareholding structures, through the contracts that govern day-to-day operations, to the regulatory permissions that keep businesses compliant. We act as outsourced general counsel for companies, NGOs and ambitious ventures, handling board and shareholder governance, commercial contracting, intellectual property, data protection, real estate and corporate secretarial work so management can focus on running the business. The team draws on our wider corporate finance, tax and dispute resolution capability whenever a matter calls for specialist back-up.
