Bilingual Legal Counsel | Africa Energy, Mining & Cross-Border Transactions | 15+ Years Experience

I am the founding partner of Afri-Conseil Associates, a specialist legal consultancy providing bilingual (English/French) legal services across Africa and internationally. With over 15 years of experience, I advise multinational corporations, governments, sovereign wealth funds, and private investors on complex cross-border transactions in the energy, mining, and natural resources sectors.

My practice spans the full lifecycle of major projects — from regulatory approvals and contract negotiation through to dispute resolution and M&A execution. I have deep expertise in OHADA business law, international arbitration (ICC and LCIA), and the regulatory frameworks governing extractive industries across multiple African jurisdictions.

Key areas of focus include oil, gas, and mining contract drafting and negotiation; cross-border M&A and joint venture structuring; corporate governance and compliance; due diligence and risk assessment; and government relations. I operate across jurisdictions including DRC, Congo Brazzaville, South Africa, Namibia, Zambia, Guinea, Cameroon, Senegal, Côte d'Ivoire, England & Wales, and the Netherlands.

I deliver practical, commercially focused legal solutions tailored to the unique opportunities and challenges of doing business in Africa. Whether you need a single contract reviewed, regulatory guidance, or a full legal team for a complex transaction, I bring the regional expertise and international standards to help you succeed.
