Dedicated Candidate Attorney with a focus on compliance and taxation.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Candidate Attorney currently working as a Pupil Crown Counsel at the Attorney-General’s Chambers, where I engage in legal drafting, research, and provide legal opinions. My experience includes court appearances in various courts, including Magistrates, Industrial, and High Courts, where I offer legal advice to government ministries and functionaries.
Prior to my current role, I served as a Candidate Attorney at Thwala Attorneys, where I honed my skills in client consultations, legal drafting, and administrative functions. My academic background includes a Bachelor of Laws Degree from the University of Eswatini, and I am currently pursuing a Post-Graduate Diploma in Taxation, focusing on the Eswatini Revenue Appeals Tribunal.
With a strong commitment to my professional development, I aim to be admitted as an Attorney of the High Court in 2025 and aspire to add value as a Compliance Officer post-admission. My diverse legal experience and academic training equip me to navigate complex legal challenges effectively.
