We offer comprehensive advice and representation in all aspects of restraints and restrictive covenants, including:
- Drafting and Reviewing Agreements: We craft robust restraint clauses that protect your business interests while remaining enforceable under current law.
- Enforcement and Litigation: When necessary, we take swift action to enforce restraints, including seeking urgent injunctions to prevent the misuse of confidential information or damage to goodwill.
- Pre-Employment Counseling: We advise individuals on the potential impacts of restraint clauses before they enter new employment, helping them understand their obligations and future career prospects.

Our efficient debt recovery services help businesses reclaim outstanding payments and maintain healthy cash flow. We understand the challenges of pursuing longstanding debts and offer comprehensive assistance throughout the recovery process.
The debt recovery journey typically begins with a formal demand letter, followed by court proceedings if necessary. If the debtor fails to respond or pay within the specified timeframe, we can pursue default judgment. In cases where the debtor contests the claim, we're prepared to guide you through the entire court process, working towards either a settlement or a judicial decision.
Post-judgment, we can assist with various enforcement methods to recover both the debt and associated legal costs. These may include:
- Writs for seizure and sale of property
- Examination procedures
- Garnishee orders
- Bankruptcy proceedings (for individuals)
- Insolvency actions (for companies)
Our debt recovery services encompass the following:
- Developing strategies to prevent outstanding debts
- Negotiating debt disputes
- Initiating recovery and enforcement proceedings when necessary
- Drafting formal demands
- Preparing and filing legal claims
- Managing debt recovery litigation
- Securing judgments
- Enforcing court orders
We tailor our approach to each unique situation, ensuring the most effective path to recovering your funds.
Real estate is often one of the most valuable assets an individual or business can own. For many, it represents not just financial investment but also personal identity and heritage. The high stakes involved make property matters frequently subject to disputes and strict regulations.

Insolvency – the inability to pay debts when they're due – can affect both individuals and businesses, often with serious consequences. While it may seem daunting, it's a situation that many face, whether due to unexpected job loss, unforeseen expenses, or business challenges.
Bankruptcy, on the other hand, is a legal process that can provide relief from overwhelming debts. In the corporate world, a similar process is voluntary administration.
This complex area of law often requires close collaboration between legal and accounting professionals. Some key aspects we handle include:
- Statutory demands: These are common in commercial contexts and often serve as a presumption of insolvency. They're frequently used as grounds for initiating company liquidation.
- Liquidation and bankruptcy proceedings: Whether you're considering these options or facing them involuntarily, we can guide you through the process.
- Creditor's petitions: If you've been served with one, immediate action is crucial.
Time is often of the essence in insolvency and bankruptcy matters. If you're facing financial difficulties, considering liquidation or bankruptcy, or have received a statutory demand or creditor's petition, we strongly recommend seeking our legal advice promptly.
