A home. Savings. Family possessions. A lifetime of hard work.

But when someone passes away, their loved ones can be left with difficult legal and administrative responsibilities.

Estate administration helps ensure that a deceased person's affairs are handled according to the law.

Planning matters. So does having the right guidance.

“𝐘𝐨𝐮'𝐫𝐞 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝.” Three words that can change someone's life.

But dismissal isn't always as simple as an employer saying goodbye.

South African labour law requires a fair reason and a fair procedure when dismissing an employee.

Whether you're an employer managing a difficult situation or an employee questioning your dismissal, knowing your rights matters.

How you choose to get married can affect far more than you realise — from your assets and debt to what happens financially during your marriage and one day in your estate.

An antenuptial contract isn’t about expecting a marriage to fail. It’s about starting your marriage with clarity and making informed decisions together.

Walters & Stander Attorneys can guide you through the different matrimonial property options and help you put the right agreement in place before your wedding day.

Divorce, maintenance, parenting arrangements and other family disputes involve real people, real children and decisions that can affect a family for years.

That’s why good family-law advice is about more than paperwork. It’s about understanding your rights, knowing your options and finding a practical way forward.

If your family circumstances are changing, speak to Walters & Stander Attorneys for clear, professional legal guidance.

Misconduct doesn’t automatically mean dismissal.

When an employee has committed misconduct, the seriousness of the offence, the circumstances, disciplinary history and whether the employment relationship has broken down can all be relevant when determining an appropriate sanction.

A recent Labour Appeal Court judgment again dealt with the question of whether dismissal was proportionate to the misconduct proved.

For employers, the lesson is simple: follow a fair process and make sure the sanction fits the circumstances.

For employees, disciplinary action should also be dealt with in accordance with fair labour practices.

A Will is not only about what you leave behind. It’s about making things easier for those you love.

This National Wills Week is a good reminder to make sure that your Will is in place, valid and still reflects your current wishes.

Life changes — marriages, children, divorce, property and businesses can all affect how you want your estate handled.

If you don’t have a Will yet, or haven’t reviewed yours in some time, now is a good time to do so.

Contact Walters & Stander Attorneys for assistance with Wills and estate planning.

Here's something most people never think about: when an attorney based somewhere else — Joburg, Cape Town, anywhere — has a client with a matter here in Mbombela, they don't handle it alone. They appoint a local correspondent attorney to be their eyes, ears, and hands on the ground.

That's a bigger job than it sounds like. It means knowing the local court registrar, the Deeds Office staff, the Sheriff's office — the kind of local knowledge you only build by actually being here, year after year.

We do this work regularly for attorneys outside the Lowveld — covering litigation, property transfers, and estate matters — so their clients get the same standard of service whether their case is being handled 5km away or 400km away.

It's one of the quieter parts of what we do. But it's exactly the kind of behind-the-scenes reliability that keeps a legal matter moving smoothly, even when nobody involved is watching it happen.

𝐌𝐲𝐭𝐡: Every divorce ends in a bitter courtroom battle, with lawyers on opposite sides fighting for every last cent.

𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲: Most divorces don't need to go anywhere near a courtroom.

Mediation and settlement-first processes let both parties reach an agreement together, guided by legal advice, without the stress, time, or cost of a drawn-out court case. It's calmer, it's usually faster, and it puts you back in control of decisions about your own life — especially when children are involved.

Not every situation is right for mediation, and that's okay too. But it's worth knowing the option exists before you assume war is the only way through.

If you're facing this and want to understand your options in a private, judgement-free space, we're here.
