ABOUT THE LAW FIRM

My firm specialises in commercial, corporate, and taxation matters, offering precise, results-driven legal representation. I provide consultancy services and technical trainings, having worked with governments, the United Nations, journalists, and civil society organisations to craft legal frameworks and fiscal policies that drive equitable progress.


Lai'Latif & Co Advocates operates through a globally outsourced model, with team members spanning the African continent, Argentina, Bangladesh, and Cambodia. This diverse and inclusive approach allows the firm to stay attuned to global trends while offering locally informed solutions.
