Research interests

Joyman is a private lawyer interested in trusts, property, security and succession. As a comparative scholar, his work engages with the interactions between common law and civil law, drawing on the laws of Japan, Taiwan, Quebec and Scotland.

A second strand of Joyman's work is informed by his background in history. In this regard, he adopts a legal historical approach to land law in Africa, focusing (initially) on Senegal.
