Client Testimonials:

One of the amazing things about this team is it doesn’t matter which attorney you talk to you know the advice will be consistent and in line with the latest developments in the law. They are all highly skilled and always responsive and available in an area that often requires an in-the-moment opinion. They know my business inside out and I would not be able to do my job successfully without them.

Sandro Milo is my trusted advisor when it comes to labour matters. His knowledge and practical application of the law makes him the best of the best. His understanding of S197 is probably the most advanced I have ever come across. He has also built a team of like-minded attorneys in his team.

Tasso Anestidis is responsive, incredibly knowledgeable, and always willing to assist me and my team – which is often. His attention to detail and way with words is excellent. He assists me in mitigating a lot of risk in my organisation.

Nadia Froneman’s knowledge, dedication to her craft, and understanding of my business and its requirements is incredibly valuable. We could not run our business to the level we need to without her input. Nadia’s knowledge of S197 is amazing and we could often not conclude these deals without her input.’

Justine Shear has worked with me on some tricky matters and her knowledge, advice and ability to get to know the business in quite a short space of time is amazing. She is crucial to our success in employment matters and I look forward to working with her for many years to come.

This practice always goes the extra mile. They are very client centered, their turn around time is exceptional, and a culture of service excellence is instilled throughout the firm.

They have really partnered with our business and understand the processes and dynamics very well. They also provide different options but at the end a very simple one stop solution to overcome challenges.

Sandro Milo is a real solution seeker and understand the needs of clients.
