Temporary In-House Legal Counsel Services

We offer temporary or fixed-term legal counsel services to support your business during periods of transition. Whether covering a vacancy or a short-term absence, we step into the role of legal head or general counsel for a defined duration – without employee status – until a permanent appointment is made or the incumbent returns.

​

Our experience spans over 20 years in corporate legal environments particularly multinationals in the mining, engineering and FMCG space. We understand the demands of leading legal functions and the importance of maintaining continuity during change.

 

Our responsibilities typically include:

• Managing legal aspects of commercial operations.

• Overseeing legal teams and internal workflows.

• Engaging with external law firms.

• Handling dispute resolution and litigation management.

• Advising the board and senior leadership.

• Collaborating with departments such as sales, supply chain, marketing, finance, tax, real estate, BBBEE, mergers and acquisitions, internal investigations, and trade sanctions.

• Supporting executive committees and board-level decision-making.

 

We integrate seamlessly into your organisation, providing trusted legal guidance and operational support when you need it most.
