About The Firm

Pan-African Legal Excellence,
Built Since 2007.

Centurion Law Group was founded in 2007 with a singular conviction: that Africa's most complex legal and commercial challenges demand a firm built from the ground up to meet them. Operating across jurisdictions, sectors, and deal structures, CLG has spent nearly two decades earning the trust of clients navigating the continent's highest-stakes environments.

Headquartered in Sandton — South Africa's preeminent financial and commercial hub — and with offices in Cameroon and Equatorial Guinea, CLG provides genuinely pan-African coverage. Our integrated team delivers outsourced legal representation and comprehensive advisory across corporate law, oil and gas, arbitration, tax, and project finance.

What distinguishes CLG is not simply geographic breadth, but the innovative and flexible model through which we serve clients. We combine the depth of a full-service firm with the agility and client-centricity that complex cross-border work demands — making us the preferred partner for businesses starting or scaling operations across Africa.

Nearly two decades of pan-African legal practice — advising on the continent's most complex energy, corporate, and cross-border transactions.

Why CLG

The African Legal Partner You Cannot Afford to Overlook

In a market defined by complexity, relationships, and risk — the firm you choose matters. Here is what sets CLG apart.

Deep Pan-African Market Knowledge

Founded in 2007 and operating across South Africa, Cameroon, and Equatorial Guinea, CLG has spent nearly two decades building on-the-ground expertise across African jurisdictions. We understand the regulatory environments, local dynamics, and cultural nuances that determine success on the continent.

Cross-Border Transaction Expertise

From oil and gas project structuring to cross-border project finance and international arbitration, CLG advises on transactions that span multiple African jurisdictions. Our multi-office presence means you get counsel that is both legally rigorous and commercially grounded across borders.

Multi-Disciplinary Teams Across 10 Practice Areas

CLG's integrated teams cover oil & gas law, corporate law, arbitration, tax advisory, contract negotiation, project finance, and more — all under one roof. Clients benefit from cohesive, coordinated counsel rather than fragmented advice from unrelated firms.

Senior-Led Client Service — Every Time

At CLG, your matter is handled by senior practitioners — not delegated to juniors once instructions are received. Our innovative, flexible approach means clients receive direct access to experienced legal minds who understand the commercial stakes and treat each engagement with the gravity it deserves.

A pan-African group with offices in South Africa, Cameroon and Equatorial Guinea — built to serve clients wherever opportunity meets complexity.
