Onrus River / Hermanus - estate attorney

[ChrisF]

Few seconds on google and I have more than 16 legal firms in the area ...

I guess I could phone each firm and ask if they are reliable/honest/affordable .... yea right ...


We are looking for a legal professional to assist my aunt with the estate of my late uncle. House transferred to wife, bit of money to the kids. Cant see why the banks want close to 100k for this !!


Doing it herself is NOT an option ! Dont want to get into the details, but she MUST hand this over to legal professionals.


Any references would be appreciated.



PS ... I see a thread coming about "good intentions" and a practical last will and wishes ....

Ken niemand daar nie maar voorspoed

Ongelukkig maak die prokers so... 3.5% van die boedel waarde. Ek het self al gesien watse bollie job dit is om dit te doen so verstaan dit in n manier... dis nie net van n transfer n ding hier en daar en dis klaar nie...

mmmm .... jaaaaa ......

self al ouma se forms gaan afgee by die Meester van die Hof se kantore ... en JA, dis geen maklike taak vir die ou in die straat nie.


Maar dan WEET ons mos ook dis eintlik die paralegal wat 90% van die werk doen.

1x advertensie in die koerant
sessie met die familie om al die inligting in te win ... DIT kan nogal tyd vat.
kyk of enige inligting terug gekom het van die advertensie.
bate en laste staat ... al die werk is reeds in stap twee gedoen.
nou kom die sports ... is daar kontant om die kostes te dek ... HIER kan dinge skeef trek en tyd vat (behoort nie in die boedel n issue te wees nie)
nog n advertensie in die koerant
en dan word die instriksies uitgeryk om die huis oor te dra en die kar en en en ..... weer n paar uur se werk.


indien daar nie probleme is nie, is dit mos regtig nie 100k se werk nie

Sorry, but we all have preconceived ideas about what "professionals" should charge... "how can the plumber/electrician/carpenter/painter/whatever charge THAT MUCH????"
So your problem is not necessarily the amount charged for the work, but to be sure that what is to be done is done properly, speedily and professionally... some seemingly straightforward looking estates really turn out a huge pain in the but, and a massive amount of really schlepp-work, mostly because of stuff the deceased never considered...

So ask around, at the court and the banks, because they get to deal with executors. M2CW.

true ... I am also a professional, selling my time. So I DO understand what you are saying. But in our trade we either charge "per hour" or on a "fee scale" - which ever is LESS for the client.



either way, THIS is what this thread is about - finding a reference to a professional in the area that has good references.

See if you can find Marietjie Chin, we did the Hermanus map for her some years back and she seemed like an "honest"attorney.

[ChrisF]

Dankie Pieter. Hul VAN is op die Google lys. Goed om n goeie terugvoer te ontvang.

Ek werk teen 2.5 % of self minder afhangende van die probleme of nie met die afhandeling .
Ek is in Durbanville maar sal Hermanus toe ry vir n eerste konsultasie .
Indien jy belangstel kan jy my bel en ons kan dit bespreek .

Arno baie dankie vir die aanbod.


My tannie het n plaaslike (Hermanus) persoon aangestel, en nou wag ons net vir die bevestiging van die Meester dan kan die proses begin.
