SRDB Law Firm advises its clients in Senegal with the support of Sylvain Sankalé, the firm’s partner in Dakar and a member of the SRDB Worldwide Network.
A Doctor of Law and former member of both the Senegalese and Paris Bars, Sylvain Sankalé has an in-depth understanding of the Senegalese and West African legal, economic and institutional environment. Throughout his career, he has notably acted as a trusted local partner to leading international law firms such as EVERSHEDS SUTHERLAND, BIRD & BIRD and EDWARD NATHAN SONNENBERGS (ENS).
SRDB’s presence in Senegal enables the firm to combine strong local knowledge with international legal practice in advising companies, investors, institutions and public-sector stakeholders on the development, structuring and legal protection of their activities and projects in Senegal and across West Africa.
The firm is particularly active on transactions and projects involving complex legal, economic or institutional issues, notably in the infrastructure, energy, logistics, industrial and services sectors.
Depending on the nature of the assignment, SRDB may also draw on the complementary expertise available within SRDB Alliance and SRDB Advisory in order to provide an integrated approach to projects involving legal, financial and strategic dimensions.
