At Madondo Legal Practice, we serve a diverse clientele in family law, including individuals, children, and married persons, with a focus on discretion and sensitivity. Our expertise has enabled high-profile clients, including public officeholders, to resolve matrimonial disputes privately, avoiding unwanted media attention. We skillfully handle divorce proceedings in the High Court of Zimbabwe, representing both local and diaspora-based Zimbabweans, and provide counsel on child custody, access, maintenance, guardianship, and adoption. Additionally, we advocate for children in inheritance disputes following a parent’s passing.

Our services extend to crafting private and family Trusts, helping clients structure their affairs efficiently, while also establishing Trusts and related companies to mitigate tax, exchange control, and credit risks. We assist with drafting Wills—ranging from simple to complex—for estates of all sizes, and expertly administer deceased estates, including those of significant value. With deep experience in estate planning, we cater especially to high-net-worth individuals and those in high-risk trades, ensuring their legacies are secure.
