Firm overview

REX Advocates has a long history of practicing law in Tanzania with unrivalled knowledge of the legal and regulatory regime for doing business in the country. Previously practicing as REX Attorneys, in 2015, some of the REX partners became part of ENSafrica, www.ensafrica.com, a regional practice present in seven other African countries. The REX partners were looking into joining forces with a regional practice to leverage their ability to access the growing African businesses and regional infrastructure projects. REX partners had to re-organize again in August 2019 due to the enactment of local content laws and regulations, which restrict practice in the natural resources sector to law firms fully owned by citizens without affiliation to foreign firms. Even though the Firm was fully Tanzanian owned, the affiliation with the regional practice would render it unqualified for local content purposes. Despite the changes, the REX team remains intact and as strong as it has always been. REX provides a full-service corporate commercial practice, covering a wide range of business areas, including natural resources (mining, oil & gas) and energy; competition; mergers & acquisitions; banking and finance services; tax advice and tax litigation; employment law; intellectual property; insolvency; company secretarial & legal compliance services; legislative and regulatory regime review, property law & conveyancing, and commercial litigation and arbitration both local and international. REX has recently established a Forensics and White Collar Crime Practice as well.
