Initially through the corporate process (now abolished) and afterwards through the Company Courts, I have always provided assistance to shareholders with conflicts of interest, also participating as a proxy in meetings, in addition to providing defence in corporate arbitration proceedings. On the basis of the relationship of trust that I create with business owners and their families, they appoint me to advise them in the event of corporate distress or if they should wish to sell. In both of these situations, my primary goal is to safeguard business continuity whilst identifying solutions to the inevitable conflicts that arise between the interests of those with ownership and the company. Assisting business owners as a lawyer or legal advisor requires me to verify existing problems and goals, identify and share strategies and then implement these through to complete fulfilment of the established aims.

with particular reference to marital crises and the effects of criminal conduct on family dynamics. My approach to individual situations and clients’ problems is rooted in establishing the necessary relationship of trust between client and professional, essential to fulfil the mandate of defence, and particularly in the areas where my main focus falls. I believe that my client must feel constantly guided and accompanied through the legal proceedings in which they are involved. I strongly believe in ensuring the client is always informed, and in the professional’s complete willingness to explain and “translate” simple and complex legal concepts, making them accessible. Procedural decisions must be the expression of conscious agreement between professional and client.
