How We Work

A pro-active approach towards work tailored to the specific needs of our clients.

We believe in a pro-active approach towards work; therefore, we tailor our processes to the needs of our clients. Through this we are able to offer personalized services to our clients whenever called upon to do so.

To facilitate our operations and enhance quality service delivery at all times, we have the following standard operating procedures put in place:

1

Competent Court Jurisdiction

File and defend cases brought to our attention in the courts and tribunals which have specific jurisdiction to deal with them.

2

Persistent Follow-Up

Persistently follow up in all our matters, whether they have been filed in courts or not, with all reasonable speed.

3

Continuous Client Briefings

Updating our clients on all progress and ensuring timely notification of all mentions, hearings, and judgments.

4

Expedited Legal Opinions

Giving a clear and actionable legal opinion at the earliest possible moment to our clients.

5

Periodic Written Status Reports

Where we are handling several matters for a particular client, we do periodic write-ups updating our clients on their respective files.

6

Special Registry Emphasis (Lands & Sheria House)

We lay special emphasis on all matters in the Lands offices, Motor Vehicle Registry, as well as Sheria House as this is an area where delays, missing files, and lethargy have been known to slow case procedures. Our Clerk coordinates everything needed in these offices, minimizing wasted time and ensuring searches and registrations are completed promptly.

7

Decree Execution via Tested Auctioneers

Where we have to execute Court Decrees, we employ the services of well-tested and honest Auctioneers of high professional integrity to do the work.

Client Instructions & Flexibility: Nevertheless, we are always amenable to adjust our methods should the client insist on more viable options. Our approach also depends heavily on the client's instructions and the specific task being handled.
