Description:
DMF Attorneys, a long-established law practice, entered a new era under a strong all-female leadership team in 2023. The law firm dates back to 1972 when Mr Morris Fuller began the practice focusing on property law in Westville. Over the years the firm merged with other practices, changed names and broadened its scope of work, opening up opportunities for a new generation of attorneys – among them the current directors Chantele Schutzler, Thulisiwe Ngcobo and Samantha Van Rooyen - who joined DMF in 2015.
Chantele, Thulisiwe and Samantha have taken DMF to new heights with the support of a motivated team of carefully selected, highly skilled individuals, while retaining the strong family ethos that has characterised the firm throughout its evolution.
The professional team of attorneys includes Chantele Schutzler (Managing Director), Thulisiwe Ngcobo (HR Director), Samantha Van Rooyen (Director, Conveyancer and Notary Public), Kimera Govender, Daniela Montague, Eugenie Perumal, Jennifer Uba and Wandile Mbabane. They are backed by experienced paralegals and support staff – some of whom have been with the firm for 20 to 40 years.
Today DMF’s services include commercial law, criminal law, debt collections, estate planning (Wills) and administration of deceased estates, family law, litigation, property bonds and transfers, sectional title, licenses and liquidations, as well as medical negligence, arbitration and mediation. DMF has also grown to become one of Legal Serve’s top agents servicing six court jurisdictions. While we may not have mentioned each and every aspect of the law, our practice can advise you in all areas of the law.
