Norton Rose Group throughout Africa

Casablanca is our fifth office in Africa – the others are in South Africa (Cape Town, Durban and Johannesburg)  and Tanzania (we have an associate office in Dar Es Salaam).  Our strategy for the region is to provide high quality legal services to clients from Africa’s principal legal and business hubs and Casablanca plays a key role in this strategy.

Our Africa specialists operate in civil law francophone jurisdictions and in common law jurisdictions across Africa and possess considerable knowledge of local customs,  practices and languages.

We have particular expertise in energy (including renewables),  infrastructure, mining and minerals, real estate and telecoms.  We also have significant experience in resolving disputes within the region, including the application of the new African company laws under OHADA (Organisation for the Harmonisation of Business Law in Africa) and advising on protection afforded by OHADA law.

Outside Africa, we have expert advisers in Asia, the Middle East and other key regions that are experiencing a steady growth in industry and financial links with Africa. Our Africa offering is unparalleled.
