Legal services for the things that matter
Your legal needs can change depending on where you are in life or what is happening in your business. You might be buying property. Going through a divorce. Dealing with an accident claim. Protecting a business. Planning your estate.
PM Attorneys’ practice areas are built around these different needs.
Conveyancing and property law
Buying or selling property involves more than signing an offer.
PM Attorneys assists with property transfers, conveyancing, property agreements, property development matters and property disputes, helping individuals, property owners and businesses navigate the legal side of property transactions. If you are buying a home, transferring property or dealing with a property-related dispute, having the right legal guidance from the beginning can help you avoid expensive problems later.
Looking for property attorneys in Pretoria? Start with the legal issue, not just the transaction.
Family law and marriage contracts
Family-related legal matters are personal. They can also become complicated very quickly.
PM Attorneys assists with divorce and family disputes, maintenance, child custody and care arrangements, matrimonial property regimes, antenuptial contracts, postnuptial contracts and customary marriage matters.
Whether you are planning a marriage or dealing with the end of one, the right legal advice can help you understand your rights, responsibilities and options.
Personal injury and RAF claims
An accident can create legal and financial problems at the same time.
PM Attorneys assists with personal injury matters and Road Accident Fund claims, helping clients understand the legal process and pursue claims arising from qualifying accidents and injuries.
If you have been injured and are unsure whether you have a claim, getting legal advice early can help you understand what needs to happen next.
Commercial law and corporate governance
Businesses need legal support long before a dispute reaches court.
PM Attorneys assists businesses with commercial law, contracts, corporate governance and company secretarial matters, helping business owners and organisations manage their legal responsibilities and make informed decisions.
The goal is practical legal support that fits the business, rather than unnecessary complexity.
Wills, trusts and estate planning
Estate planning is not only for people with large estates.
A will can help you decide what should happen to your assets, while trusts and broader estate planning may be appropriate depending on your circumstances.
PM Attorneys assists with wills, trusts, estate planning and deceased estate administration, helping individuals and families plan and deal with estates when someone dies.
Whether you need a law firm in Pretoria or Centurion for a property matter, family dispute, personal injury claim, business matter or estate planning, PM Attorneys is here to help.

2. Who Appoints the Transfer Attorney?
A property transfer is handled by a conveyancing attorney, a legal professional qualified to attend to property transfers and related registration work.
In a typical South African property sale, the offer to purchase identifies the arrangements for appointing the transferring attorney. The seller commonly nominates the attorney, although the wording of the agreement and the circumstances of the transaction should always be checked.
The transfer attorney manages the legal process needed to register the property in the buyer’s name. This includes preparing transfer documents, obtaining the necessary clearances and coordinating the relevant parties.
The transfer attorney may also need to work with other attorneys during the transaction. For example, if the seller has an existing home loan, a separate bond-cancellation attorney may handle the cancellation of that bond. If the buyer is financing the purchase with a new home loan, another conveyancing attorney may handle the registration of the buyer’s bond.
These processes must be coordinated so that the relevant registrations can take place correctly.
