Corporate & Commercial Law

In the fast-paced and rapidly changing economies of the world and with the unique challenges faced by businesses in South Africa, companies require corporate and commercial legal advisors with a flair for success and a track record of excellence.

Tabacks Attorneys Inc is no exception. We have created an environment that inspires passion for practicing corporate and commercial law.

Our expert team of corporate and commercial advisors can assist you with: 

  • mergers, acquisitions and take-overs

Employment Law

Employment relations are extensively regulated in South Africa through both positive legislation and collective agreements between employers and trade unions. Employment law plays a central role in the running of all businesses in South Africa, requiring careful application and consideration in most business decisions.

Tabacks Attorneys Inc focuses primarily on advising employers and has extensive experience in the following areas of employment law:

  • collective employment law - including best practice dealing with strikes, work force reductions, employment related mergers and acquisition issues, drafting collective agreements between employers and trade union in respect of organisational rights and collective bargaining rights, board reorganisation, outsourcing and employment equity / affirmative action compliance
  • individual employment law - including drafting employment contracts, restraints of trade and confidentiality agreements, enforcing restraints and trade. 

Litigation

Our litigation team has expertise in:

  • - corporate and commercial litigation and arbitration
  • - insolvency and business rescue proceedings

Please don't hesitate to contact us, should you wish to speak to one of our experienced lawyers in litigation.

Mining Law

As one of the leading firms in mining law, Tabacks Attorneys Inc has seen the industry come a long way since the implementation of the Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Act, 28 of 2002 ("MPRDA").

South Africa is famous for its abundance of mineral resources, accounting for a significant proportion of world production and reserves, and South African mining companies are key players in the global industry. The changing nature of mining regulation from a common-law base to a largely legislated system subject to both constitutional and administrative law principles has brought with it new challenges for businesses operating in this sector, and it is vitally important not only to understand the law but to implement all transactions accordingly.

We specialise in offering the following expert services:

  • advice on the MPRDA and BEE legislation
  • new applications for rights, permits and permissions

Natural Resources & Energy Law

Our lawyers in the natural resource and energy law department offer clients extensive proficiency in simplifying client and business requirements, refining solutions where they can be the most complex, in a wide range of services, including:

  • renewable energy solutions
  • climate change initiatives and carbon trading markets
  • electricity and independent power producers
  • oil and gas law, both in South Africa and Africa generally
  • land use planning and zoning
  • environment law
  • water law
  • mine health and safety inquiries and SHE compliance/performance audits
