Individual Editorial
Hugo Pienaar operates a notable employment and labour law practice, with particular recognition for his advocacy before the Labour Courts and advice concerning collective action. He acts for a broad range of South African corporates, including financial services and pharmaceutical companies. He moved from Cliffe Dekker Hofmeyr to Thomson Wilks in March 2025.
Strengths
Hugo Pienaar is a fantastic resource. He provides strategic advice on complex matters.
He is one of the most competent practitioners I have ever had the privilege to work with.
