André de Villiers completed his B.Comm Economics and Law Degree as well as his LL.B. degree in minimum time at the Potchefstroom Campus of the North West University. He was a bursary student afforded local as well as international funding, last mentioned by the Justus Liebig University, Germany.
He was honoured with academic merits by his Alma Mater and by the Golden Key International Honour Society for being in the top percentile of his class. He did his articles of clerkship at a specialising and existing local law firm, Heinricha Hodgson Attorneys, who refined his skill in civil, criminal and family law as well as debt relief measures. Property is also one of André’s interests and he holds an NQF 5 Certificate in Real Estate. André takes keen interest in Business and Property development and this is where his true passion, families included, lies: to provide legal assistance to individuals later forming families and also to families who are involved in business. Therefore, the firm aims to provide a holistic (proactive) legal service to clients in their personal and professional capacities. On top of that, the firm believes that access to justice is of paramount importance in society and access to justice must be promoted. We therefore put focus into very affordable retainer packages and surround ourselves with professionals who assist us in these endeavours. Amongst others is Keet Attorneys who we are privileged to be in association with and have a joint office since 1 October 2015. I want to be the type of attorney who assists grandpa, father and son - An attorney of families and their businesses, so to speak - |
