There are occasions in life and business when a dispute with another party becomes inevitable. Ultimately, this may require you to approach a court to enforce your rights. This can be an extremely time consuming, confusing, and costly process for any person who has not engaged with the South African judicial system on prior occasion.

Our knowledge and experience places us in a unique position to honestly advise you on the merits of your case and in so doing ensuring that your best interests are protected.

How do we operate?

Our firm prefers to meet in person or via Teams Link with our clients to discuss your matter. The aim of tis first meeting is to establish the following: 

  1. To consider the various facts and merits of your matter and present you with the possible options that you have in law. 
  2. To discuss the time frame and cost implications of your matter.
  3. To address any other concerns that you might have.

What Will It Cost Me?

As attorneys we do not sell products, but rather our time and knowledge spent on a particular matter. As a result of the many unique features of contract drafting instructions, we are unable to provide set prices each and every type of instruction. Therefore, our firm will provide you with a quotes on a case by case basis after conclusion of our first consultation.

Am I guaranteed to be successful?

Litigation matters are in their essence unpredictable in nature. Therefore, it is always important to remember that we are unable to make promises or guarantees of the outcome. The only thing we can guarantee our clients is maximum effort and unwavering professional support in every task we engage in on their behalf.
