Legal Services
We can assist with all business related legal matters such as contracts, legal advice that is not part of an existing legal litigation. We can also assist as brief to council but cannot give advice on any legal litigation in process nor can we appear in court or draft litigation related documentation except for giving pre-council advise, to ensure that the correct legal council is appointed and to assist the legal council appointed. We can draft Letters of Demand, Notice to Defend etc, but not the actual plea as this is part of the litigation process. We further assist with labour related matters such as to prosecute or preside over disciplinary hearings.
