The Corporate and Commercial practice recently clinched top honours for M&A deal flow for the eighth consecutive year at the annual DealMakers Awards and is gearing up to take the lead on some of the largest and most complex mergers and acquisitions in 2017.

“Werner’s team brings deep expertise in the renewables sector and enhances our strong energy practice and Africa capability,” says David Thompson, Director and Regional Practice Head for Corporate and Commercial at CDH, Cape Town.

Werner has experience in M&A transactions, general corporate, commercial law, joint venture, partnership agreements and private equity. He regularly advises various developers and sponsors on wind, solar, biomass and biogas energy projects in the infrastructure space.

We are delighted to have Werner join our team and we’re confident that his appointment will enhance our growing and award-winning Corporate and Commerical offering.
