Testimonial

“I’ve made use of the legal services of Our Lawyer (Pty) Ltd – Adv Abduroaf on two separate occasions, and I was thoroughly impressed. The first related to a child maintenance issue and the second, an international relocation application with the high court. With both situations, I knew very little regarding the process and my rights, as an applicant. Adv Abduroaf took time in thoroughly explaining the situation, process of the application, strength of my case, and recommendations. He was available at any time to handle any further queries and responded to each almost immediately. I found him to be clear and honest always with his dealings. He was very knowledgeable around each situation and gave me the right advice to take things forward. His advice on my maintenance issue allowed me to proceed further on my own, with the maintenance court. My high court application was swift and smooth, and successful first-time round. The best part was that he was there every step of the way. I wasn’t even required to be in person, at the high court. The entire court application was completed in 6 – 8 weeks! I will highly recommend the services of Our Lawyer (Pty) Ltd – Adv Abduroaf and his team, through and through. ”
