Projects Hub

Our Projects Team: Market-Leading Legal Advisors

• We are widely recognised as a highly experienced and fully integrated Projects team, offering end-to-end legal support to lenders, borrowers, developers and sponsors throughout the project lifecycle. With specialist expertise across regulatory, project finance, corporate, PPA structuring, construction, land, and environmental law, we ensure that projects are delivered efficiently and reach financial close with confidence.
• Our team has worked together for over a decade, providing seamless, cross-border legal solutions under both South African and English law. We draw on the strength of our global practice when needed, giving clients access to deep sectoral insight and international best practice.
• We have played a leading role in the evolution of South Africa’s energy landscape, advising on landmark transactions across government procurement programmes and the rapidly growing commercial and industrial (C&I) sector. We are a market leader in corporate power purchase agreements and have advised on more than half of the projects awarded Preferred Bidder status under the REIPPP Programme across sponsor, lender and contractor mandates.
• Our trusted relationships with all major South African and most international banks, as well as with leading development finance institutions—including the African Finance Corporation, IFC, PROPARCO, AfDB, FMO, DEG, DBSA and the PIC—underscore our reputation in the market. Our strong track record in development finance and blended funding structures enables us to guide complex transactions across South Africa and the continent.
• With a reputation for technical excellence, commercial insight and responsive service, we are a trusted legal advisor of choice in the Projects sector.
