Home / About Us

One of Zimbabwe's premier law firms since 1903.

Coghlan & Welsh has served Bulawayo — and Zimbabwe — for over 120 years. The names change less than the world does; the standard never has.

Our Story

A century of trusted counsel.

Established in 1903, Coghlan & Welsh stands as one of Zimbabwe's premier law firms. For more than a century the firm has advised companies, families and public institutions through every chapter of the country's history — including a hundred years of service as the Bulawayo City conveyancers.

Our vision is to be the legal service provider of note in Sub-Saharan Africa, and our purpose is to contribute to the growth and development of the community we have served for four generations.
