Celebrating Excellence Across Africa’s Legal Landscape

Nominations Deadline: 16th May 2025

Now in its 12th year, The African Legal Awards continue to shine a spotlight on the outstanding achievements of Africa’s legal trailblazers. Hosted by Law.com International in partnership with the Corporate Counsel Association of South Africa (CCASA), these prestigious awards honour the individuals, teams, and firms driving progress and innovation across the continent.

With each passing year, the awards expand their reach, recognising an ever-broader spectrum of talent from across Africa’s diverse legal community. We are excited to uncover and celebrate the groundbreaking work, landmark cases, and transformative initiatives that have defined the legal sector over the past year.

Join us as we acknowledge the leaders, innovators, and changemakers who are shaping the future of law in Africa.
