Who we are

G.S Motsi Law Chambers was established in 2016 with its major thrust being business advisors and advocates for corporate entities and individuals. We provide our clients with personalized legal advice, representation, and results in a wide variety of legal areas.
It has been our firm’s observation that in the years past Zimbabwean corporations and businesses set their eyes exclusively to large law firms to handle their business, employment, real estate, and other forms of litigation. Today, Business Executives and In-house counsel are much more sophisticated: their selection of law firm is based more on the real needs of the case at hand. Hence, we have adopted a robust approach to client needs, which include approachability, responsiveness, efficiency, and effectiveness.
It is thus our firm’s culture to respond promptly to inquiries, taking an active and personal role in each and every case. To this end it is imperative that we report regularly and consistently on case developments. We are mandated by ethics of the profession to remain at the top of changes in the law. Our levying of legal fees conforms strictly to the dictates and confines of the Law Society of Zimbabwe tariff.
At present we implement a formal affirmative action policy. Broadly speaking, our present policy is to eliminate from our work place any colour bar and gender and disability discrimination and to give preference to job applicants emanating from previously disadvantaged communities. We devote considerable amount of time and effort to in-house training of relevant personnel.
Our lawyers specialise in specific areas of law and specific business sectors. The teams of experts that are put together meet the experience and skills required by each assignment. This enables you the client to have constant access to our collective knowledge and expertise through the lawyer you work with. He or she will put together the team of specialists the assignment requires, and will ensure that your business objectives always guide our work.
But this is not enough to meet the requirements of our clients in a rapidly changing commercial world. As the world changes, so legal issues change and new specialist areas are created. We therefore invest time and energy in analysing the new skills and competence that you the client will require in the future, so that we are ready when those needs arise.
”One for all, all for one.” In order to give our clients the best service possible, GSM Law Chambers is a True Partnership. The profit from our business activities is shared between all the partners irrespective of who has done the work or had the contact with the client. Thus, the individual lawyer has no selfinterest in handling a case on his/her own, but puts together a team which best favours the client. A True Partnership contributes to a good working environment with a joint responsibility for the clients and shared use of the competence which has been built up.
Our team is comprised of energetic, dedicated individuals who bring ideas and creativity to every aspect of the legal process. GSM Law Chambers has partners, consultants, of counsels, and heads of support services. "Partner" refers to a member of GSM Law Chambers or an employee or consultant of equivalent standing and qualifications. Our partners educated not only in Zimbabwe but also in key jurisdictions, the United Kingdom and South Africa.
DELIVERING EXPERT ADVICE At GSM Law Chambers, we offer clear, prompt and expert advice to help you manage the risks and implement the most appropriate and timely solutions. We will tailor our advice and solutions to meet your business needs by drawing on our extensive experience of a wide variety of disputes, our detailed understanding of many industries and sectors, our broad commercial awareness and our in-depth technological and scientific resources – as well as our substantial legal expertise.
