Vicky has a refreshing ability to bring Law to the Technology space.
I had the pleasure of utilising the service of Ethiqs Law firm for my new tech start-up Female techpreneur's terms and conditions and legal documents. Right from the onset Vicky and her team were very clear on the project brief, gave relevant advice and delivered a sterling service.
She also provided an excellent after-sales service even long after the project was delivered.
What I loved about working with her was her ability to combine her technical expertise with a working knowledge and clear understanding of the practical, personal, nuances of such situations. She enabled us to handle the situation with both a tender and supportive hand whilst ensuring the business priorities and legal requirements were always met. A pleasure to work with.
Vicky's advanced grasp of, and an innate feel for legal and statutory matters, together with her warm, personal approach to our organisation has always been extremely efficient and cooperative. She has assisted in drafting and providing guidance to adjustments required to various South African and Sub Saharan African contracts and agreements based on the requirements within each country and or territory. Vicky is highly professional and respected, both by our International legal counsel, Business Partners, Distributors and Internal staff.
