What we do

How we can help

Our work focuses on three areas of law. Each page explains who it's for, how we help and what to expect.

Our approach

Professional, passionate and ethical

COGAN CRANKE MNGUNI was founded in 2006 by Jo-Anne Cogan and is now led by three directors.

We're an owner-run firm. Together, our team has over 40 years of combined experience. Many of the matters we handle are personal and confidential, so we focus on building lasting relationships with our clients, based on integrity and empathy.

  1. Professional and personal

    We approach every matter with professionalism, and we understand the sensitivity of working through personal and confidential matters.

  2. Integrity and transparency

    We see our clients as partners. We're open and honest with you at every step, so you can make fully informed decisions about your legal matters.

  3. Part of the community

    We're passionate about the people of our community on the North Coast, and we aim to offer a service that reflects that.
