Established in June 2012, Nyakutombwa Legal Counsel “NLC” is a full-service law firm based in Harare, Zimbabwe but servicing global clientele. The firm owes its beginnings to exposure to the need for fast paced, dynamic legal counsel in a fast-paced dynamic environment. The traditional law firm was seen as a lethargic and rigid establishment that failed to timeously and adequately service client needs and therefore a robust and attuned firm was established to meet this need.

By being based in Harare, NLC is generally at the center of where corporate transactions take place however with the broad nature of business and where it may be found, NLC is able to operate and service clients throughout the country using correspondent attorneys as well as regionally and globally through strategic alliances.

Intellectual Property

This is the intellectual property law practice of NLC. Here, local and foreign clients' intellectual property rights are protected through registration; monitored in relevant periodicals and, where the need arises, enforced according to law before the Intellectual Property Tribunal of Zimbabwe established according to law to deal with cases of infringement of intellectual property rights.

At our law firm the securities attorneys understand that there is a difference between simply assisting a client with drafting offering and disclosure documents and helping to guide the business owners and other key individuals.
