As any legal firm, we adhere to the prescribed fee structures contained in the annexures of the Magistrate’s Court Act and the High Court Act. Although these fees are prescribed fees for litigious matters, we are willing to discuss payment arrangements and a reduced fee in certain circumstances. We have an accommodating approach with our clients when it comes to billing and do not strictly charge “per hour or part thereof” leaving you with an exorbitant legal bill.
In most instances we require an upfront deposit that will be held in trust and our fees with be debited continuously and you will be informed of the progress and calculation of our fees on regular intervals.
Should you require legal assistance and cannot afford it, you are welcome to motivate your request for assistance. If and when we have available capacity, we will try our best to assist you, but alternatively if we cannot assist you we will refer to Legal Aid in order to get the necessary legal representation that you need.
As per the directives of the Legal Practice Counsel, all clients are legally required to complete a mandate form before instructions could be accepted from client. A copy of our mandate form could be downloaded here.
We do offer a free 15 minute consultation* (in person, telephonically, via email or virtually) for you to present your legal situation and to get an indication of how your legal problem could be addressed.
* subject to the availability of one of the attorneys
