About CJNT
Chinamatira Jonasi Nyambira & Tambanewenyu (often referred to as CJNT) is a Zimbabwean legal practice built around partner-led service, strong links to the Midlands, and a broad mix of court and transactional work.
Who we are
The firm takes its name from its partners and trades as CJNT. We work with individuals, families, employers, and businesses who need clear advice and determined representation in Zimbabwe's legal system.
Our lawyers combine courtroom and advisory experience with ongoing ties to legal education and professional development in the region.
Where we practise
The practice is rooted in Kwekwe (including the Newtown area) in the Midlands Province, with professional networks across Zimbabwe—including Harare—reflecting where our partners have trained and practised over the years.
