Commercial

Quite apart from defending law suits, we routinely give advice to in-house counsel and corporate management on how to minimise their liability exposure in the day to day running of their businesses.

We guide both local and foreign clients through the maze of registration and establishment of legal entities including companies, multinationals, non-governmental organizations and trusts. The firm provides company secretarial services and acts as a representative office for several local and foreign companies. Our corporate and commercial practice largely involves advising on corporate structuring, mergers and acquisitions, tax requirements and compliance, winding up and insolvency. NAKUYACA advises on all types of commercial contracts including preparing and reviewing contracts to cover all aspects of appropriate structuring, regulatory and licensing compliance, real estate, information, communication, technology and intellectual property law. NAKUYACA handles intellectual property matters including trademarks, copyright and patent licensing, protection, enforcement, transfer and exploitation.

We are also experienced in costing a wide range of commercial litigation matters including contractual disputes, insolvency proceedings, professional negligence and intellectual property disputes. We are both claimant and defendant friendly and offer a full range of services from informal negotiations and advice through to preparation of formal Bills for detailed assessment, points of dispute and repires and advocacy.
