About Us
Effective Applications was started by business partners Sheila Clinton and Bianca Clinton (pictured on the right). The partners of Effective Applications have together had years of experience qualified as Barristers and Solicitors in England, Wales and Ghana.
Effective Applications is an outsourcing company with a conscience. We are global, ethical and contribute to the world’s wealth in developed and developing countries.
The partners of Effective Applications both have a stake in leading Intellectual Property firm Afrimark. At Afrimark, they provided a high level of service to a variety of clients that include multi-national firms, large corporate enterprises as well as established and listed companies, leading brands, household names and smaller enterprises.
They decided to use their experience managing paralegals and administration staff to set up Effective Applications- Administration and Legal Outsourcing.
