Caitlin Gottschalk is the Director of Gottschalk Attorneys and a corporate attorney who focuses on helping boards and executive teams navigate complex, high‑stakes environments. She holds a BCom and an LLB from the University of Pretoria and has spent nearly a decade advising companies and their leadership on corporate governance, regulatory considerations, and commercial risk.
Her practice centres on supporting boards when the pressure is highest – where strategic decisions intersect with legal exposure, reputational risk, and heightened stakeholder scrutiny. Caitlin acts as a general counsel to the board, helping directors structure and record their decision‑making with a clear view of the legislative landscape and affected stakeholders, so that those decisions can withstand challenge and close scrutiny.
She is known for cutting through technical complexity and providing clear, commercially grounded guidance that enables directors to exercise their duties with confidence. Caitlin keeps a close eye on developments in case law on directors’ duties and board conduct, translating them into practical questions boards can apply in the room: what must we consider, what must we document, and how do we demonstrate that we have acted in the best interests of the company.
