We are a motivated, energetic and passionate all-women firm offering affordable and innovative legal services. Our team is led by Mandy Simpson, one of Cape Town’s most formidable divorce, child and family law attorneys for the past 20 years. As a firm, we are able to provide tailored, flexible and efficient solutions to the most challenging problems with both a professional and personal touch. We are small enough to provide each client with individualised attention, yet big in terms of extensive knowledge and expertise. All of our clients matter to us – assisting a single parent gives us as much satisfaction as assisting a big corporate client.
Our firm is backed by cutting edge technologies, e-discovery and a highly secure document -sharing client platform.
DIVORCE, CHILD AND FAMILY LAW
We avoid the adversarial court process as much as possible as we understand that this is costly to couples. Our area of expertise is to offer alternative dispute resolution methods and we encourage the use of family mediation – Mandy Simpson is an internationally accredited mediator via the London School of Mediation. We also appreciate that spouses are concerned about escalating legal fees in an already difficult time in their lives and we therefore offer flexible hourly rates and ensure that costs are kept to a minimum. When considering matters pertaining to children, the best interests of the children are always paramount to us.
