What is a correspondent attorney:
Correspondent attorneys perform a variety of tasks which include, service and filing of the court documents and court file management. Correspondent attorneys may advise you as to specific nuanced practices of the Courts which they regularly practice in. At Rademeyer Attorneys we provide services tailored to your needs which range from post-box services to active involvement in your matters.
When would you use a correspondent attorney:
A correspondent attorney founds jurisdiction for a specific court. In South African Law you have to have a nominated address for service within a 15km radius of the Court out of which you want to litigate. For example, if you are based in Durban and you need work done in Randburg Magistrates Court you will need to appoint a correspondent attorney to handle the matter in that area.
