Can Family Conflict Kibosh a Trust?

When a trust's founder dies, families often assume that whatever they said they wanted will be honoured, even if the trust deed was never changed to reflect it.

A recent Supreme Court of Appeal decision confirms that this is not how trusts work. What governs a trust after the founder's death is the trust deed itself, not the wishes they expressed at family meetings in their final years.

Whistleblower Reinstated: Protected Disclosures Act to the Rescue
Read more: https://www.kclaw.co.za/whistleblower-reinstated-protected-disclosures-act-to-the-rescue/

The “Whistleblower’s Act”, formally known as the Protected Disclosures Act, encourages employees to expose corruption, criminal activity and other wrongdoing in the workplace.

But what protections does the Act actually give whistleblowers. And what steps should employers and employees take to ensure they comply with it? We’ll answer all of these questions in the context of a recent Labour Court decision to reinstate a manager who was ostensibly fired for breaching ICT policies.

Does the Consumer Protection Act Protect Every Tenant?

Paying rent under a residential lease does not automatically make you a consumer under the Consumer Protection Act. A recent Supreme Court of Appeal decision shows that the real question is whether the landlord is letting property in the ordinary course of business.

That said, even where the CPA does not apply and a lease is validly cancelled, a landlord cannot simply tell a tenant to leave without following the correct eviction process.

Dementia in the Family? Here Are Your Legal Options
Read more: https://www.kclaw.co.za/dementia-in-the-family-here-are-your-legal-options/

A dementia diagnosis affects far more than memory. As mental capacity declines, families are often confronted with difficult legal and financial decisions. Many are surprised to learn that a Power of Attorney may no longer be valid.

Understanding the alternatives can help protect a loved one's affairs before a crisis develops. Read on for the low down.

Your Dormant Trust Is Not Invisible to SARS

Trusts remain a valuable estate planning and asset protection tool, but they also carry ongoing compliance obligations. Many trustees assume that a dormant trust with no income, assets, or activity can simply be left alone.

SARS has made it clear that inactivity does not remove a trust's compliance obligations. With penalties now being imposed for outstanding trust returns, dormant trusts may be attracting more attention than their trustees realise.

One Bad Letter and Your Eviction Falls Apart

A tenant may be in clear breach of a lease, but that does not guarantee a successful eviction.

A recent High Court judgment shows how an unclear cancellation notice and a failure to follow the correct legal process can derail an otherwise strong case, leaving landlords with an expensive lesson in the importance of getting the basics right.

A deck collapsed seven months after transfer. The buyers, convinced they’d been sold a raw prawn, headed to the courts.

Eight claims and twelve years later, they haven’t recouped a cent. A 2026 Western Cape High Court judgment draws a sharp line between what the law protects buyers against and what it does not.
