We specialise in:
Drafting of Wills
Why draft your will with us? We have been drafting Wills and administering deceased Estates since 1985 and are able to draft a Will tailor-made to your specific circumstances. Because of our experience in winding up Estates, we know the effect of the wording of your Will.
When an employee of a bank or financial institution offers to assist you with your will, consider the fact that leaving the drafting of your Will in the hands of someone without specialized knowledge and experience in the drafting of Wills and the administration of Estates, exposes your loved ones to an entire different set of potential pitfalls. Many a court case has originated from ambiguous wording in a Will or a clause written in such a way as to not be practically enforceable. This can result in family divisions, bitterness and a lack of closure for those you leave behind.
We do not charge fees for the safekeeping of your Will in our safe and updating of your Will is done at a fraction of the fees.

Administration of Deceased Estates
At the start of her career, before qualifying as an attorney, Berna Lubbe worked at the offices of the Master of the High Court for three years and later built a specialised deceased Estates practice from the practical knowledge and expertise gained during these years. This, coupled with our belief that winding up of a Deceased Estate encompasses much more than the mere administration of documents together with our constant strive to make the process as stress-free as possible for the loved ones of the deceased, is why we believe you should use our services.

Conveyancing
Selling or Purchasing a property can be daunting and even emotionally draining. Although there are many good estate agents in the market, with whom we enjoy working hand in hand, clients are often disappointed with the effect of a Deed of Sale signed by them whilst not fully aware of its legal implications.

We have been practising as Conveyancers since 1990 and strive to effect the smooth transfer of your property as quickly and efficiently as possible. We build up a personal, yet professional relationship with our clients, the result being that we often find ourselves to be the preferred attorney for the entire family, always bearing in mind that our clients are the most important aspect of our firm.
