BUSINESS PHILOSOPHY
The guiding principle of our firm is to establish itself as the premier independent black women-owned law firm in the country, offering unparalleled legal services across all domains.
In specific cases, we believe in augmenting our knowledge and resource base by cultivating collaborative relationships with other law firms, both domestically and internationally, whether through consortia or associations. We aim to enrich our firm’s cross-jurisdictional expertise by seconding staff to the offices of international associates, particularly those involved in joint projects with National Bar Association members through the Black Lawyers Association’s exchange program.
Our international profile expansion is pursued through the following avenues:
- Mutual referrals of work
- Correspondent work referrals
- Joint handling of more intricate matters, benefiting both firms and ultimately the client
- Participation in bids for specific government projects
- Engagement in commercial business
With the necessary expertise, we are equipped to advise governments, parastatals, and the private sector on the legal structuring of major projects, especially when collaborating within a consortium.
