🩷 A touch of Pink, with a Purpose 🩷

This month, VWVH Attorneys is proud to show our support for Pink Trees for Pauline, an initiative that brings communities together in support of those affected by cancer.

You may have noticed a little more pink at our offices — a simple splash of colour carrying a much bigger message: support, awareness and hope.

And while we are celebrating all things pink, we got the most beautiful flowers from Adenes Farm Flowers — these absolutely gorgeous Peonies! 🌸

Thank you, Adenes Farm Flowers, for brightening our office.

Here’s to a month of pink with purpose, kindness and beautiful gestures 🩷🩷

IN THE NEWS | VWVH IN ACTION

We are proud to see Milton Mackier, Director at Van Wyk Van Heerden Attorneys, featured in Die Burger today in connection with a complex shareholder dispute currently before the Western Cape High Court.

Representing 24 applicants in the matter, Milton is acting in proceedings involving shareholder rights, the validity and ownership of shares, and important questions of corporate governance.

For us, this is about more than a newspaper headline.

It reflects the calibre of legal work undertaken by our team and the trust our clients place in us when the stakes are high, the issues are complex and experienced legal representation matters.

Well done, Milton. We are proud to have you representing both our clients and our firm at this level.

Life changes. Has your will?

A lot can change in a few years.

You may get married or divorced.
Welcome children or grandchildren.
Buy or sell property.
Start a business.
Or experience changes in your family and financial circumstances.

But there’s one important document we often forget to revisit — our will.

Having a will is a great start. Having a will that still reflects your life, your wishes and the people you care about is what really matters.

With National Wills Week coming up from 14–18 September 2026, now is a good time to ask yourself:

Does my current will still say what I want it to say?

During National Wills Week, our attorneys will draft basic wills FREE of charge.

“I don’t own much. Do I really need a will?”

It’s a common misconception that a will is only necessary if you own significant assets.

A will is about more than what you own. It is about making your wishes clear, providing certainty for those you leave behind and helping to protect the people who matter most to you.

You don’t need to have a large estate to plan responsibly for the future.

During National Wills Week, 14–18 September 2026, one of our attorneys can assist you with drafting a basic will FREE of charge.

Don’t wait for “one day”. Make the appointment. Get it done.

National Wills Week | 14–18 September 2026

When last did you think about your will?

A valid will is one of the most important things you can put in place for the people you love. It helps ensure that your wishes are known and that those you leave behind are protected.

During National Wills Week, one of our attorneys will draft your basic will FREE of charge.

Whether you don’t have a will yet, or life has changed since you last updated yours, now is a good time to get it done.

A dormant trust may be inactive — but that doesn’t mean it is off SARS’ radar.

Even where a trust has no income, assets or transactions, annual tax return obligations may still apply. And with SARS increasing its focus on trust compliance, outstanding returns could lead to administrative penalties that continue to accumulate.

Thinking of winding up an old or inactive trust? Remember: winding up a trust and deregistering it with SARS are not the same thing.

The important question is not simply whether your trust is active.

Is your trust compliant?

If you are a trustee and are uncertain about the status of a dormant or inactive trust, speak to our team for guidance.
