There are some things we keep meaning to get to, and making or updating a will is often one of them. Not because we do not care, but because life is busy and it is not always an easy conversation to begin.

A little clarity now could make things easier for the people we care about later. If you have been meaning to find your will, read through it or begin the conversation, we would be happy to help.

People rarely regret seeking legal advice early. More often, they wish they had started the conversation sooner.

Whether you're preparing a will, purchasing a property, planning for your family's future or navigating a legal dispute, taking the time to understand your options almost always leads to better decisions.

Legal advice isn't only there for times of crisis. It also has an important role to play in helping people plan ahead, make informed choices and move forward with confidence.

If there's something you've been meaning to put in place or a decision you've been postponing, we'd be pleased to help you understand your options.

Some of the most important conversations I've been part of have never taken place in a courtroom.

They've happened around a table, with people who were willing to listen to one another, ask difficult questions and genuinely look for a way forward.

Mediation isn't suitable for every dispute, but when it is, it often allows people to resolve matters with less conflict, less stress and greater certainty about what comes next.

Every situation is different, which is why understanding the people involved always comes before deciding on the legal process.

If you're facing a family, business or personal dispute and you're not sure what the best next step looks like, we'd be delighted to help you explore your options. Sometimes the right conversation can make all the difference.

Over the years, I've helped women buy their first homes, protect businesses they've worked hard to build, plan for their families and make difficult decisions for ageing parents.

Every matter is different, but the responsibility they carry is often the same.

These aren't simply legal documents. They're important moments in someone's life.

That's why I believe good legal advice is about more than understanding the law. It's about taking the time to understand the person sitting across the table.

Whether you need help with a property transaction, your estate planning, a family law matter or another important legal decision, we'd be honoured to help you take the next step with confidence.

One of the things I enjoy most about practising law is that no two clients are ever the same.

Two people can arrive with the same legal question, yet the right answer for each of them may be completely different. That's because good legal advice isn't only about understanding the law. It's about understanding the person sitting across the table.

Their priorities.
Their concerns.
Their family.
Their future.

That's why I never believe in a one-size-fits-all approach.

Every conversation starts by listening.

Only then do we start talking about the law.

Ready for the Next Step in Your Legal Career?

The first few years after admission are some of the most important in any legal career.

We're looking for a Junior Attorney with at least two years' post-admission experience to join our Somerset West practice.

This is an opportunity to work on a wide variety of matters, take ownership of your files and continue developing your skills within a supportive, professional environment.

Experience in the following areas would be advantageous:
✅ Civil Litigation
✅ Family Law
✅ Deceased Estates

You'll also need to be comfortable appearing in the Magistrates' and Regional Courts, have excellent written and spoken English (bonus points if you can communicate in Afrikaans), and take pride in producing work that's accurate, thoughtful and well prepared.

We're looking for someone who:
✅ Takes initiative and enjoys responsibility.
✅ Works independently while contributing to a collaborative team.
✅ Has excellent attention to detail.
✅ Values professionalism, clear communication and strong client relationships.
✅ Holds a valid Legal Practice Council membership number and can provide contactable references.
✅ Can manage their time and not buckle under pressure.

Own transport would be advantageous, although candidates living close to our Somerset West office will also be considered.

If this sounds like the kind of environment where you would thrive, please send a concise CV together with a short cover letter explaining why you'd like to join Holford Jones.

Build Your Legal Career With Purpose

The beginning of your legal career can shape everything that follows.

At Holford Jones, we believe articles are about far more than completing a contract. They're about learning how to become a confident attorney, building trusted relationships and developing the judgement that comes from working on real matters with real people.

We're looking for a Candidate Attorney to join our Somerset West practice.

If you have a genuine interest in Conveyancing, Family Law, Deceased Estates and Commercial Litigation, and you're someone who enjoys learning, takes initiative and values doing things properly, we'd love to hear from you.

We're looking for someone who:
✅ Is curious and eager to learn.
✅ Takes responsibility for their work.
✅ Communicates professionally and confidently in English (bonus points if you can communicate in Afrikaans as well).
✅ Enjoys solving problems and is pedantic about the finer detail.
✅ Wants to build a meaningful legal career, not simply complete their PVT contract.
✅ Won't buckle under pressure

Requirements for this role:
✅ LLB degree.
✅ Strong written and verbal English.
✅ A genuine interest in the areas of law we practise.

If you'd like to begin your legal career with a firm that values professionalism, relationships and personal growth, please send us a concise CV together with a short cover letter telling us why you'd like to join Holford Jones.

Email your application to [email protected] - the subject line must contain "Candidate Attorney Position"

One of the biggest misconceptions I come across is that you only need an attorney when something has gone wrong.

In reality, many of the most valuable conversations happen long before there's a dispute.

Over the years, I've found there are certain moments when seeking legal advice can make all the difference. Here are five of them.

Every day, I meet women making important decisions. Some are exciting, some are challenging, and many require a great deal of courage. Whether they're starting a new chapter, protecting what matters most or navigating uncertainty, I've always been inspired by their willingness to keep moving forward.

On Women's Day, I'd like to celebrate every woman embracing her own journey, whatever that may look like.

Wishing you a very Happy Women's Day.
