After a short stint at Lesetedi and Company Law Firm, Keneilwe joined Collins Newman & Co in August 2001 as a Pupil Attorney, and by the time she left in 2006 to set up Moribame Matthews, was a Senior Associate. Keneilwe has a firm, solid foundation and background of Corporate/Commercial Law, Labour Law, as well as Civil Litigation.  At Moribame Matthews, Keneilwe heads the Civil Litigation Department (which has under it, commercial litigation, general litigation, debt collection and labour/employment advisory). Keneilwe also practices Corporate/Commercial transactional work, which she and the other founding Partner, jointly oversee. This includes advisory work on legislative framework and interpretation of statutes for most parastatals in Botswana.

Keneilwe’s practice has grown to include provision of legal due diligence services for local and international companies, which incorporates advisory services regarding Botswana law and doing business in Botswana for international clients. As a result, Keneilwe was instrumental in Moribame Matthews being chosen to be transactional advisors in Botswana for a bid involving a major acquisition by an international oil company of a subsidiary in Botswana.

Keneilwe is also an active member of the Law Society of Botswana focusing on the growth of the legal profession in Botswana and particularly the progression of women in the legal field especially in private practice.
