On 15 August the Johannesburg office held its annual Women’s Day event. 50 Community members came from the Johannesburg area as well as Tembisa, Zola and Dobsonville. Candice Pillay from Hogan Lovells spoke to them about child and spousal maintenance and 30 attorneys, advocates and mediators made themselves available for private consultations on the day. In addition, information was provided by the Teddy Bear Clinic, the CCMA, POWA, the Legal Resources Centre, MES and the Deeds Office. Thanks to Candice and to the legal practitioners who volunteered their time to advise and assist the women who had legal issues.
