General information is not a legal opinion.
The website is designed to help prospective clients understand services and prepare for an initial conversation.
No attorney-client relationship
Viewing this website, using the matter finder or preparing a call brief does not create an attorney-client relationship. A mandate exists only after the firm accepts instructions on agreed terms.
No outcome guarantee
References to experience, institutional relationships, turnaround focus or service areas are not promises of a particular result. Legal outcomes depend on the facts, law, evidence and relevant institutions.
Third-party names
Standard Bank and ABSA are named because Hattingh & Scholtz’s current website expressly publishes panel relationships with them since 2007. Their names are presented as factual relationship references and not as a claim that the banks endorse all services offered by the firm.
