Message

At Strategic Legal Consulting, I advise SMEs on commercial, corporate and regulatory matters. I draft and negotiate agreements, prepare governance and compliance documents, and manage petroleum licensing applications, objections and appeals.

At AJ Property Holdings, I advised management on commercial leasing and regulatory matters, drafted and reviewed agreements, and implemented governance and compliance policies, including FICA and POPIA. I also coordinated external legal service providers and monitored legal risk.

At Pravda and Knowles Attorneys and Pather and Pather Attorneys, I worked on litigation, prepared legal documents, and represented clients before courts and other tribunals. I’m an admitted Attorney of the High Court of South Africa, and I mentor LLB students through a structured legal development programme.
