Cecilia Prinsloo van der Linde has practised for more than 23 years. She holds an LL.M cum laude and is an Admitted Attorney of the High Court and a Conveyancer.
She founded the firm in 2008 on a simple boutique model: fewer clients, closer attention, and the senior attorney on every matter from first consultation to final order. In litigation and in contracts, the detail is the case, and detail takes time.
Cecilia handled our contract dispute herself from start to finish. She explained every step in plain language and we always knew where we stood. The outcome was better than we hoped.
What stood out was that I dealt with the senior attorney the whole time, not a junior. Prompt, precise, and honest about costs up front. I would not go anywhere else.
She took my motor industry complaint seriously when no one else would. Thorough, calm, and genuinely on my side. I finally felt heard.
Meticulous preparation and a steady hand in court. Cecilia was three steps ahead the whole way. I trusted her completely.
Our mediation was handled with the same care as a courtroom matter. Clear updates, no surprises, and everything resolved on time.
Practical advice that kept our business on the right side of the rules without drowning us in jargon. Exactly what we needed.
