Services

Legal support for the way modern businesses work.

Our services are built around the everyday legal needs of a business, so you can get the support you need, when you need it: once-off, or as part of a monthly retainer. Each comes with the same standard: good legal work, a clear scope and a fair fee agreed before we start.

01Commercial

Commercial & contractual law

Protecting your commercial interests through careful drafting, review and negotiation. The agreements you sign every week deserve more than a downloaded template.

“A big client sent a 40-page contract. Can we sign it?”

We help with

  • Master services agreements (MSAs)
  • Statements of work (SOWs)
  • Non-disclosure agreements (NDAs)
  • Supplier and customer agreements
  • Service level agreements
  • Contract amendments and negotiations
  • Commercial legal advice
02Technology

Technology & IT law

Legal support for businesses working in an increasingly digital, technology-driven world. We write agreements that fit your product, your customers and the way software is really built and sold.

“A freelancer wrote our code. Do we actually own it?”

  • Intellectual property provisions
  • Data protection clauses
  • AI-related contract terms

Data protection & POPIA

06Advisory

Ongoing business legal advisory

Management gets a consistent legal resource for everyday business decisions, on a monthly retainer, so you can ask early instead of calling only when something has already gone wrong.

“We have legal questions every week, but not a full-time lawyer’s worth.”

We help with

  • General commercial legal queries
  • Contractual risk identification
  • Legal correspondence
  • Support for management
  • Ongoing legal guidance
  • External legal department support
