Making the Legal Department Effective

In many Companies, the legal department is thin on the ground. We work with clients to identify ways and means of making legal departments effective by identifying those matters that the legal department should focus on. We also help the Client develop self-help options for non legal staff

to enable the legal department focus only on those critical items. These include the review of applicable laws and simplifying the same for use by non -legal staff.

Legal Audits

In order to effectively serve its customers and other stakeholders, a company must develop a sound legal model for the achievement of its objectives. Just like its accounting counterpart, every so often, it is prudent for the-

Board to seek the services of external advisors to periodically perform periodic reality checks to test and adjust the validity of the legal model which typically takes the form of a legal audit

Ethics and Compliance Programmes and Training

We recognise the importance of ethics and compliance programmes and we work with companies to put in place effective compliance programmes. These include anti- bribery and corruption programmes as well as competition law programmes.

We further recognize that it is important that any organisation carries out Compliance training to ensure that it is at all times compliant with the law.
