We operate on the core values of strength, stability, and a rigorous legal foundation—delivering strategic, results-driven counsel that marries specialist legal knowledge with practical, commercial thinking.

  • Fidelity Fund Certificate Holders
  • Accredited Mediators
  • Commissioner of the Small Claims Court (RVE)
  • Fully POPIA-Compliant Practice

Our Areas of Practice

Civil Litigation & Dispute Resolution
We provide strategic, tenacious representation in the High Court, Magistrates' Courts, and specialist tribunals. We handle complex commercial disputes, robust debt recovery, contractual claims, delictual actions, appeals, and urgent or interim applications with absolute precision.

Commercial Law, Contracts & Business Consulting
We provide the legal scaffolding your business needs to operate with confidence and efficiency at every stage of growth. Our commercial services include:

  • Company incorporations, corporate governance, and complex transactional work.
  • Mergers, acquisitions, and due diligence investigations.
  • Precise, commercially aware contract drafting (NDAs, SLAs, bespoke agreements).
  • Strategic corporate advisory, business structuring, and trade agreement negotiation.

Employment & Labour Law
We advise both employers and employees on the full spectrum of labour relations. From the meticulous drafting of employment contracts and HR policies to representation in disciplinary hearings, CCMA arbitrations, section 189 retrenchments, and Labour Court litigation, we ensure strict compliance and fair outcomes.

Property Law & Evictions
We provide commercially sound legal advice for property-related matters. While we do not handle conveyancing (preventing administrative delays), we excel in dispute resolution, eviction proceedings (PIE Act), landlord-tenant disputes, the drafting of commercial and residential lease agreements, and the strategic review of Offers to Purchase (OTPs).

Family & Matrimonial Law
We offer sensitive, firm-handed representation during life's most challenging transitions. Always keeping the best interests of the children at the centre, we handle contested and uncontested divorces, maintenance claims, parenting plans, cohabitation agreements, antenuptial contracts, and urgent domestic violence protection orders.

Criminal Law & Defence
If your freedom is on the line, we provide vigorous, non-judgmental defence. We protect your constitutional rights at every stage of the justice system, handling urgent bail applications, plea and sentence agreements, white-collar commercial crime defence, trial representation, and the expungement of criminal records.

Mediation & Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR)
As fully accredited mediators, we facilitate structured, high-EQ negotiations to resolve disputes efficiently, privately, and cost-effectively. We specialise in commercial, workplace, family, and property mediation, helping to preserve vital business and personal relationships where aggressive litigation would otherwise destroy them.

Whether you are a corporation navigating a complex merger, an individual facing a family crisis, or a law firm seeking a dependable correspondent in Gauteng, Wilkens Van Emmenis Inc. is ready to protect your interests.

Correspondent Attorney Services
We serve as reliable "boots on the ground" for out-of-jurisdiction law firms requiring skilled representation across the East Rand and Ekurhuleni. We handle court appearances, service and filing, urgent applications, default judgments, and CourtOnline submissions with prompt turnaround times. We cover 12 major courts and tribunals, including:

  • High Court: Gauteng Local Division (Johannesburg).
  • Regional & Magistrates' Courts: Ekurhuleni Regional Court; Boksburg, Benoni, Germiston, and Kempton Park Magistrates' Courts.
  • CCMA: East Rand / Ekurhuleni and Benoni offices.
  • Specialist Tribunals: Equality Court, Domestic Violence Court, and Small Claims Courts.
