What Does This Mean?
It means that in addition to diligently applying our legal expertise to a matter, we also take into account the fact that Family Law disputes often incur a great deal of emotional conflict. Finding the balance between due legal process and an equitable agreement is something we specialise in, and we approach every matter with care and sensitivity to the nuances of each specific situation.
In addition, South African law makes provision for a wide range of recognised family dynamics – including traditional or customary unions, nuclear and extended families, same-sex marriages, and committed partners who are not married but who parent children together, among others. This means that every family unit is unique, and a ‘one size fits all’ legal solution cannot be applied.
For this reason, our team’s approach to dealing with Family Law matters is one of empathy, sensitivity, and respect for the family or cultural norms that define the family unit, ensuring that your needs are fully understood and that you are properly advised and expertly represented.Being solutions driven, it is our mandate to present all legal options available to our clients and to educate them as to how these would apply to their unique set of circumstances. In doing so we seek to empower our clients and equip them to make well-informed decisions best suited to their needs. Authenticity, combined with a sympathetic, intuitive approach, enables us to apply legal expertise in a deeply human and relatable manner.
