Windhoek, Namibia – The legal landscape in Namibia has seen the welcomed return of Twapewa Mwashindange, an experienced attorney specializing in regulatory compliance and corporate commercial law, who rejoins ENS after various tenures at prominent law firms around the world. ENS announced her return on April 9, underlining the ongoing reshaping of its team across Africa.
Mwashindange first joined ENS in 2015, making notable contributions before her move to the London office of Latham & Watkins in 2023. Her career then took her to Dr Weder, Kauta & Hoveka in Namibia, where she continued to hone her expertise for six months prior to rejoining ENS. Her background includes significant work across finance, government, mining, energy, and insurance sectors, contributing to her well-rounded profile in handling complex legal matters.
Hartmut Ruppel, the executive chairperson of ENS Namibia, expressed his enthusiasm about Mwashindange’s return: “We eagerly anticipate the fresh insights and significant contributions Twapewa will bring to our team and our clients.”
The firm has also recently bolstered its presence in other parts of Africa. In Nairobi, Kenya, Judy Kabubu joined the ENS team from MMAN Advocates in March. Johannesburg’s office saw the addition of Tendai Jangara, a seasoned forensics expert, further strengthening ENS’s capabilities in this critical area of legal practice.
Further strategic hires in Johannesburg have included Jonathon Saville, a seasoned corporate lawyer, and Craig Shapiro, a specialist in intellectual property law who co-founded Wiz Inc Attorneys. Additionally, the firm brought on Deborah Carmichael, an executive knowledgeable in banking and finance, in December of the previous year.
These strategic moves signal ENS’s commitment to enhancing its service offerings and capacity across multiple jurisdictions in Africa, cementing its standing in diverse sectors of significance such as banking, corporate finance, and forensics.
As legal landscapes across Africa continue to evolve, the strategic positioning of seasoned professionals like Mwashindange and her colleagues signifies a robust approach by ENS to meet the complex demands of its clientele across various sectors. With these additions, ENS aims to fortify its influence and deliver expansive expertise in crucial areas of legal practice that continue to grow in importance due to economic changes and regulatory developments.
