The cost of losing a legal battle
March 1, 2022Who exactly needs an energy performance certificate?
March 1, 2022Can you believe that March is the start of Autumn already!? We are still working on our summer bodies and winter is already around the corner!
Sadly, we have to say goodbye to our candidate attorney, Carlton Adams, who will be joining Legal Aid. Thank you for all your hard work Carlton (and manning the braai when necessary!) We wish you well in your future endeavours!
We would also like to wish Sarah and Zenita a very Happy Birthday. May your year ahead be filled with Blessings.
A special thank you to Shireen our “Minister of Finance” who is celebrating her 10 year anniversary at Smuts & Co. Your hard work and contribution to the office is greatly appreciated. Cheers to the next ten years!
In March we always celebrate a very special holiday – Human Rights Day. For us as a law firm, Human Rights are one of the corner stones of our profession and we therefore appreciate this day even more than other special days. In South Africa we have had many great men and woman who have helped us to learn about the rights of every citizen, however, we would like to quote the late Desmond Tutu, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, “My humanity is bound up in yours, for we can only be human together.” Wishing all our clients, family and friends a Happy Human Rights Day!
We love receiving feedback from our clients and the message received from the Borngrabers warmed our hearts: “We are deeply grateful for the professional and fantastic way in which you handled the transfer of our property. You were so kind, extremely patient, professional, caring, understanding, punctual and a real support when things went wonky due to the Durban attorneys delays of the bond guarantee docs in respect of the purchasers. We don’t even have words to express our thanks. Every time I called you, you assisted me and listened when I was distressed and upset and you were just there for me and you really helped me get through the process. I don’t know how we would have fared with you and Smuts Co backing us and working so hard to help us finalise the matter. You went way way beyond the call of duty to follow up on matters and help us. I know you have many other clients, but we felt as if we were your only clients. You attended to our every question timeously and you were available to assist us at all times. A million thanks to a fantastic team at Smuts Co!”
A special thanks to our fantastic staff who look after our client’s interests at all times.
