Myself and my partner are in a customary marriage since . We have been having challenges in our marriage ever since and now we have irreconcilable differences. We are both working and we share two children under the age of 11, a property purchased in and two vehicles. Previously we were both in agreement for a divorce but she recently doesn't want a divorce but her behavior towards indicates otherwise. I want a divorce to escape the life we are living that is starting to affect my kids.
I am a Wits student who was in a relationship with another student.Our relationship ended on a good note but last night as I was hanging out with my friend in my room he suddenly came to my room and started accusing me of Stalking and harassing his friends which to me is very defamatory so all I want is help with writing a letter warning him to stop accusing me of things I don’t know as it might affect my image.I already wrote the letter using the limited law knowledge I have what I need is just someone who will draft the final part and send it to him.

This has to do with a housing rental agreement gone wrong. The agents withheld money from the landlord. The landlord ended the mandate with the agent for breach of contract and missing money. My lease with the agent came to an end yesterday (28 Feb ), but I agreed with the owner to stay on one more month. The owner wanted me to stay on for longer but we could not agree to the conditions of the new lease he offered me. He demands i pay the rental directly to him instead of the agents because he is scared the agents keep this money too, and the agents are also demanding that I pay them. In the meantime, considering that the agent has already kept some of the landlord's money, I am very worried that I will never see my deposit again.
recently bght a house and the agent never explained to me about the property having a registered and an uregistered servitudes. The registered servitude is situated where it will pose a structural risk to my property and the Home Owner Association keep on presurising me to agree with the neighbour using the servitude. I need them to register my right to cliam as the owner of the property to hold the user of the servitude liable if later I experience problems with the structure of my house.
Hi, I need advice/assistance with a sectional title dispute. The owner in the unit above me had a major repair done to her bathroom, approximately 2 months ago. The plumbers are not certified and did not offer her a guarantee for the work done (by her admittance last week). On 29 January , I informed the owner upstairs that there was water leaking from her bathroom, into my bathroom. After numerous follow ups from my side, she eventually called the same plumber for a quick repair job. A few days later, the leak started again, but worse. I've been very patient and cooperative, to the point that I even arranged for the Complex's Plumber PLUS an independent (Certified Plumbing and Building) Contractor to assess the damage and quote her for repairs. The water leakage is getting worse, damaging my bathroom tiles, and is spreading to my bedroom ceiling, with the potential of mold growth. This is devaluing my property and causing me immense stress. I have informed her of this, yet she is in no haste to get the repairs done, EVEN AFTER the plumber's assessment (severe water leakage, damage and mold already forming in her own bathroom). I have all the correspondence between myself and the owner, with images. PLEASE HELP ME. What should I do?
I would like to request a consultation regarding a maintenance matter concerning my 18-year-old daughter. Her father and I are divorced. Our daughter has now reached the age of majority, and there is currently disagreement regarding maintenance payments. Her father is financially well-resourced, whereas my financial position is significantly more limited. I recently wrote to him in an attempt to address the situation amicably. He has demanded that I pay a specific amount of maintenance, which I am not in a position to afford. I have, however, calculated an amount that I can reasonably and sustainably contribute. Acting in good faith, I opened a separate bank account in our daughter’s name and paid my contribution directly into her account. He is now insisting that I pay the amount directly to him instead and is attempting to dictate the terms unilaterally. Given our history, this is not the first time we have faced a similar dispute. Previously, after initial demands, the matter ultimately resulted in negotiation. I am not refusing to contribute, but I will also not be bullied into agreeing to an amount I cannot sustain or into arrangements that are not legally appropriate. I would like clarity on the following: My legal obligations toward an 18-year-old child. Whether payment directly into my daughter’s bank account is legally appropriate. Whether he has the legal standing to demand payment to himself. The correct legal process should this dispute escalate. I am prepared to pay for a formal consultation and would appreciate your guidance on how best to proceed in a firm, legally sound manner.
