Message from our Chairperson
You know that feeling when you take the first sip of your cup of coffee in the morning. Or how it feels when you reread your favourite book, and the characters feel like long lost friends. Well, that is how it feels to work at CDH. And yes, it may surprise you to hear a senior, battle-scarred lawyer talking about feelings. So let me explain. As I am sure that you are aware, the large law firms in Africa are very similar, focusing on client-centricity, building relationships, and of course billings. But each law firm has a particular character, an essence. I have been working here for more than 30 years and although the firm has grown and continues to do so, it remains familiar, warm, and embracing of all.
Tim Fletcher, Chairperson at Cliffe Dekker Hofmeyr
