About Us
Stafford Law was formed out of the need for a corporate, business and fiduciary law boutique that provides timely and practical legal advice and services tailored to the business needs of both domestic and international companies. Stafford Law offers and delivers corporate and commercial legal services in response to the business needs of its clients, in a warm but professional manner.
Stafford Law brings together individuals with extensive experience representing companies, shareholders, directors, and executives in a wide range of transactions. We also advise diverse businesses, including private, external, listed and multinational companies. Our team members have acquired significant experience in structuring and advising on various finance transactions such as private equity deals, cross border financing arrangements, bilateral loans, project finance, mezzanine financing, trade finance across manufacturing, oil and gas, telecommunications, and real estate sectors.
We also conduct due diligence investigations that support an array of commercial transactions. Because we appreciate the nuances of starting a business in a foreign country, we are trained to provide hands on practical advice to ensure our clients are well placed to do business in Ghana from the start. Stafford Law offers business regulatory and compliance advisory services, to both local and foreign clients to assist them in establishing their businesses, maintaining regulatory compliance with statutory provisions, provide company secretarial services and regulatory filings.
We do not only register and manage legal entities; we also advise and assist clients on designing appropriate corporate governance frameworks for their business needs and to ensure general compliance.
Our depth and experience is peaked in the area of transactional law and in this regard, Stafford Law lawyers are experienced in the strategic and tactical issues that arise in transactions. At Stafford Law, we advise clients in connection with transactions, structure and negotiate business transactions, draft transactional documents, counsel clients, prepare and submit materials to regulatory authorities, perform legal research, supervise closings, and draft a variety of legal documents including contracts, resolutions and legal opinions. We endeavour to use available technology to enable quick turnaround, regular feedback and consultation on all assignments.
We really understand real estate transactions and have developed an effective working knowledge of the legal, regulatory and practical issues surrounding joint venture developments, commercial projects and private residences. We are often involved from the inception stages and are thus well placed to provide practical advice such as conducting due diligence investigations, structuring purchase, drafting purchase documentation, obtaining consents and title registration.
