EVICTION ORDERS
An eviction occurs when a person is legally forced to leave the property they are staying in. Section 26(3) of the Constitution of South Africa states that:
“No one may be evicted from their home, or have their home demolished without an order of court made after considering all the relevant circumstances and that no legislation may permit arbitrary evictions.”

MEDICAL NEGLIGENCE CLAIMS
Medical Negligence refers to an unforeseen negative consequence of medical treatment that could have been avoided by a medical practitioner. South African medical law stipulates that the injury suffered must be due to the direct result of the medical practitioner’s actions or lack thereof. In the case where the medical practitioner followed the correct procedure and the patient suffered from unfavourable consequences, medical negligence cannot be claimed.
NEIGHBOUR DISPUTES
Most people have neighbours and usually the relationship is friendly and amicable. Unfortunately, some frictions are unavoidable due to irrational and erratic behaviour from a neighbour. Let our expert litigation attorneys assist to calm down an explosive situation to an amicable situation through skilful negotiation and/or litigation.

NO WIN NO FEE DEBT COLLECTION
A contingency fee, in essence, is a no-win-no-fee. The no-win-no-fee agreement originates from the Contingency Fees Act no 66 of 1997. This means an attorney is only allowed to charge their fees if and when the matter is successful. At Burger Huyser Attorneys, we offer various fee structures for our client’s debt collection needs. Any fees collected will be utilised towards disbursements first. If we were unsuccessful in collecting the debt from the debtor, you will remain liable for payment of disbursements, such as sheriff and tracer’s costs. No-win-no-fee agreements are only applicable to liquid claims.
POWER OF ATTORNEY
A Power of Attorney is a legal document, whereby a principal (person giving the authority to act on his/her behalf) gives authority to an agent (person acting on behalf of the principal) to act on his/her behalf. The Power of Attorney will set out the nature and scope of the agent’s powers to act on behalf of the principal, including but not limited to signing of legal documents, entering into contracts, opening and closing bank accounts, selling or purchasing property and instituting legal action.
VEHICLE ACCIDENT CLAIM
There are many risks involved in driving motor vehicles and each motor vehicle accident has its own unique set of facts and surrounding circumstances. Some of the risks involved in driving a motor vehicle are injuries to drivers, the passengers in the vehicles, pedestrians, as well as the risk of damage to the vehicles and/or belongings inside the vehicles.
