Drafting & Paralegal Services
Most legal problems are won or lost long before a courtroom. We handle the research, drafting, preparation and filing work that turns a stressful matter into a structured, defensible file.
Overview
Our drafting and paralegal service is the practical backbone of everything we do. We research the law on your matter and explain it in plain English, draft the documents you need, prepare you for hearings, and lodge filings on Court Online and CaseLines. Every brief is checked against current South African law and POPIA-aligned before it leaves us. Where a matter calls for an admitted attorney or advocate, we say so up front and continue to support them in the background to keep your costs down.

- Individuals who need contracts, letters or affidavits drafted properly
- SMEs that need POPIA, employment or consumer-law compliance packs

How we work
1. Intake & scoping
We take a clear instruction, list the documents to be produced or filed, and agree a fixed scope and turnaround.
2. Research & first draft
We research the applicable South African law and prepare a first draft for your review.
3. Revision & sign-off
You comment, we revise. We flag risks, missing facts and clauses that need legal advice from an admitted practitioner.
4. Filing or handover
We file on Court Online / CaseLines where applicable, or hand over a clean pack ready to sign, commission or send.
Scope of this service
This service is delivered as legal support / paralegal assistance. Across all our services we provide legal information and legal advice on non-reserved matters, and we prepare legal opinions. Nkadimeng Danny is not an admitted attorney; reserved work — court appearance, litigation on your behalf, conveyancing and notarial acts — falls outside our scope and we will refer you to an admitted legal practitioner where a matter requires it.
Nkadimeng Danny is not an admitted attorney. We provide legal information, legal advice on non-reserved matters and legal opinions — we do not take reserved work or represent clients in court. Read full disclaimer.
