Today

A full-service practice advising Ethiopian and international clients across corporate, finance, disputes and regulatory work.

Overview

We believe good legal advice should be clear, practical and candid about risk. Our aim is to ensure that clients understand their options, the consequences of each course of action, and the process and cost involved.

Our story

Dadimos & Partners LLP was founded in 2022 as Tadesse & Dadimos LLP, among the early firms established under Ethiopia’s revised advocacy-services framework. The firm was reconstituted as Dadimos & Partners LLP in November 2023.

Regulatory contribution and knowledge leadership

Our lawyers contribute to the development of Ethiopia’s legal and regulatory framework. Recent work includes supporting the Ethiopian Capital Markets Authority on directives, guidelines and supervisory materials for capital-market service providers, including work connected with public-offering rules. The firm has also contributed to legal reform discussions and publishes practical analysis for businesses operating in Ethiopia.

International connections

We regularly collaborate with international counsel on cross-border mandates.
