OUR Practices

Whether an individual, SME, or the lead counsel of a global entity, when it comes to commercial legal requirements, a client needs clear, practical and professional, timely advice that fits within the client’s commercial strategy and answering its commercial needs.

We offer a full range of commercial legal solutions, from contract drafting and reviewing to data protection. Our lawyers have an excellent track record of delivering practical, tailor-made solutions to any legal challenge.

Our aim is to ensure your ultimate goal and the exact commercial outcome are both achieved.

Fully aware of local laws and international practices, we provide our clients with legal assistance on employment matters.

Our services include providing legal advice on employment contracts and policies; regulatory requirements; termination and redundancy; maternity leave; wages; claims, complaints, and proceedings.

Alternatively, it may be about an acquisition or disposal, due diligence, or planning and executing an integration plan.

At CVML, we are our clients’ reliable legal advisors and we act on that basis. We consider ourselves as in-house counsels for each of our clients and provide strategic, creative and personalized solutions. Our services range from setting up business and family structures to avoiding disputes through mediation and out-of-court settlements.

We understand that decisions made today will impact well into the future and know that solid estate and succession planning will ensure that generations to come will reap the rewards.
