SNC Incorporated has been named National Law Firm of the Year for Namibia at the IFLR Africa Awards 2026.
The IFLR Africa Legal Awards recognise legal innovation in dealmaking, including the development of new legal frameworks, innovative transaction structures and industry benchmarks.
The awards are widely regarded as a measure of legal excellence across the continent, highlighting firms that contribute to complex transactions and support cross-border investment.
Judges recognised SNC Incorporated for its role in advising on major corporate, energy, and oil and gas transactions, as well as its contribution to Namibia’s evolving legal and regulatory environment.
The firm’s involvement in cross-border deals within the energy sector was noted as having supported investment into Namibia.
The recognition underscores the firm’s continued focus on delivering high-quality legal services to both local and international clients on complex and commercially significant matters.
“We are proud to receive this award,” said Shakwa Nyambe, Managing Partner of SNC Incorporated.
“It is deeply rewarding to see our work recognised at this level. Much of what we do happens behind the scenes, solving difficult problems and supporting our clients when decisions carry real weight. I am proud of the discipline and care our team brings to that responsibility every day. We also extend our sincere gratitude to our clients and stakeholders for their continued trust and support.”
The awards cover a range of practice areas, including mergers and acquisitions, capital markets, corporate and commercial law, finance and energy projects, and recognise law firms, lawyers and in-house teams shaping Africa’s legal landscape.
The awards ceremony was held at the Mount Nelson, A Belmond Hotel in Cape Town, South Africa, bringing together leading legal practitioners from across the continent.
The accolade adds to SNC Incorporated’s growing reputation in both African and international markets and reflects the impact of its work in Namibia and across the region.
