Law firm Dentons SA experiences exponential growth since opening in 2014:
Dentons South Africa has experienced considerable growth in recent months, adding five new partners and twelve other lawyers to the Firm’s Johannesburg and Cape Town offices. Since opening offices in South Africa through its combination with KapdiTwala in 2014, Dentons has more than trebled the size of its teams there, growing by over 240 per cent.
Since September 2016, Dentons has made three lateral hires including commercial, competition law and regulatory compliance lawyer Anthony Crane, corporate investigations partner David Loxton, and litigation specialist Elton Anderson. Elton’s arrival coincided with that of partner Nikita Lalla, who heads up the South Africa Construction and Infrastructure team, and counsel Patrick Deale, who specialises in employment law and alternative dispute resolution. In addition, corporate and commercial lawyer Simla Ramdayal was promoted to partner in 2016 and counsel Alan Jafta, a media and sports law specialist, joined the Firm in February 2017.
South Africa Managing Partner Noor Kapdi said, “Since establishing Dentons in South Africa in 2014, our team has continued to go from strength to strength, opening the Johannesburg office in 2015 and growing our service offering to meet our clients’ needs. We have welcomed a number of new partners to the Firm and in the process established corporate investigations and construction practices. We look forward to further growth in the months and years to come.”
In November 2016, partners Noor Kapdi, Shahid Sulaiman and Zithu Twala were awarded the Presidential Award from the Cape Law Society for their work in establishing the first black law firm in South Africa with an international affiliation. The launch of Dentons in South Africa marked the first time a global law firm has joined with a Level 1 Black Economic Empowerment law firm. Dentons continues to be a Level 1 status firm in South Africa, as it is 100 per cent owned by local partners.
