About Us
JHJ Attorneys is a firm specialising in criminal work which includes police bail, formal bail applications and criminal trials.
JHJ Attorneys approach is to abandon the quixotic idealistic attitude and to serve clients on a personal level. It’s the client’s needs that come first and the firm is a vessel in obtaining and executing solutions to secure success for each of our clients.
Legal research and preparation are required to secure the best possible outcome for any client.
We are focused on the best possible client representation rather than pursuing extravagant charges, billable hours and overheads. We believe that the path to success starts with how clients are treated and represented.
As much as we prefer consulting in person and having a one-on-one interaction with clients, we understand that in today’s modern world a law firm needs to adapt to circumstances. We welcome and embrace technology and change.
As Courts are implementing the use of technology by means of video conferencing and electronic filing systems, the need to overcome traditional ways of practicing law is ever important.
We are flexible and adapt to the needs of our clients, be it to consultation telephonically, video conferencing or even by using modern technology such as WhatsApp. We understand that the traditional way of conducting everyday business is changing at a constant rate. We as such wish to accommodate our client’s and their families in the most convenient manner possible.
Most of our documentation can be completed by means of electronic communication.
We truly and firmly believe in our ethos of “good enough has never been good enough”. We go the extra mile; we place ourselves in our client’s shoes and approach each case differently.
Our services will be the benchmark in the near future.
JHJ Attorneys a new era law firm.
