Our Staff
Tamara Stork
I started my career as a Labour Law consultant in 2008, whilst completing my LLB degree. This gave me a solid foundation in labour law, which I continued to specialise in during my articles subsequent to the completion of my degree, and later in practice, once admitted as an Attorney.
I have gained extensive experience in a number of fields of law over the years, having a particular passion for and interest in both labour law and gambling law. Both fields are ever evolving, and highly regulated and I enjoy assisting clients in ensuring that they are compliant with all aspects of the applicable legislation. Whilst these particular fields of law are of interest to me, I have extensive experience in corporate and commercial law, including but not limited to the drafting of complex agreements and advising parties in respect of the Companies Act, and also in litigation.
I firmly believe that an Attorney must combine a thorough knowledge of the law, with a practical outlook, in order to be truly efficient, and achieve the best results for clients. I believe in a proactive, as opposed to a reactive approach, and work together with our clients to ensure that they are at all times ahead of the curve.
I strive to ensure that I understand our clients and their needs thoroughly and I believe in building lifelong business relationships with my clients based on trust, and a belief that I will at all times strive to provide effective and efficient solutions for our clients.
