24-HOUR ATTORNEY
GAFFNEYS BUSINESS & LEGAL DOCUMENTS
by Johannesburg Attorney Warwick Jones
Ready-to-use, agreements, letters and forms for everyday business needs, instantly available on CD-Rom and in a loose-leaf binder.
Get it legally correct the first time
Now you can produce your own valid legal letters and agreements instantly - from an agreement to distribute to a restraint of trade. Perhaps a legally correct letter of appointment or a warning is what you need, or a credit application. Even a complex lease or pledge of any kind is no problem. Simply select the appropriate document from the disk or photocopy it from the file, fill in the blank spaces provided for dates, prices, special conditions, etc and instantly you have legal protection using your own valid document - saving you hundreds if not thousands of rands. You can easily customise all documents to meet your precise needs.
Efficiency and savings
These ready-to-use documents, which come with easy-to-use guidelines, are especially useful for clearly communicating your intentions and business needs in writing. It's the best way to avoid costly misunderstandings leading to lost business, labour disputes and expensive lawsuits.
In use by commerce and industry since 1984
Join the thousands of small, medium and large businesses that have saved money, protected their rights and avoided tax, labour and other problems. These successful business documents are continually revised and updated by an advocate and attorney team.
Your legal document worries are finally over
You will not need an attorney to draft any of these documents ever again. However, if you do need your documents checked, your intentions will be absolutely clear and costs therefore considerably lower. An attorney can cost ±R800 per hour now you can have both file and disk for less than a couple of hours of his time.
