Rebecca:
During our travels to the Okavango we had a matter where my husband was injured at the Camp we were staying at. We engaged their delicts and liability team and they represented us in Court. The other party settled the day before court to ensure that there was no negative publicity and we were very happy with the outcome.

Rijke:
I had a Child Custody matter in which my child was not in my custody and I wanted to get custody. My child was born out of wedlock during my time that I lived in Botswana. I engaged them and they made an application to court based on a paternity test that I did. I was very happy with the result and after many years managed to get custody of my child.

We had a very good experience and the Firm assisted us positively. the Managing Partner took personal interest in the matter and we managed to get the relief we sought for a disputed piece of land involving an Estate that had been pending with a number of lawyers prior to this.
