Maynard Menon Govender Singh Incorporated

A proudly post-1994 Constitution compliant law firm

“THE dream of the freedom charter we may be – however, we certainly are also the nightmare of the dodgy and disingenuous operator.”

Maynard Menon Govender Singh Incorporated is incredibly unsupported, and perhaps unsurprisingly so, by significant entities.

However, the firm is equally and increasingly recognised and supported by the major banks, as well as several hand-picked national and multinational corporates. The firm refuses to “fall from the purer faith”. It flies by its own flag and makes its own steam.

It continues on an upward trajectory, spurred and cheered on by the dream of South Africa’s liberators – a country based on proper principles that are held together by a solid work ethic and underpinned by a commitment to a liberated country for all good South Africans.

The firm believes that the fertility of the soil today will determine the fruit of tomorrow, and is committed to seeing the dream become a reality.

‘What we nurture is what grows’

Maynard Menon Govender Singh Incorporated is a pre-emi- nent, ground up and re-defined team of legal experts seeded and strengthened in the fertile and constitutionally-compliant post-1994 ground. It is a firm committed to purist egalitarianism, with solid principles that are never subservient to the relentless and often ruthless pursuit of profit.

“When I look at the profile, presence and reputation of this law firm, in my view, I think now this was the dream of our Freedom Charter.”

Dr Ela Gandhi – Peace activist and granddaughter of the late Mahatma Gandhi.

“I anticipate that this law firm will become a leading centre for critically-needed and progressive public engagement and debate.”

Professor Robert van Niekerk –Chair of public governance at the Wits School of Governance.

With a branch office in Cape Town completing the firm’s national footprint, and a 1 000-m2 purpose-built bespoke head office with state-of-the-art architecture, leading-edge systems and Zen energy, Maynard Menon Govender Singh Incorporated’s “showroom” nevertheless remains a servant of its “store room”.

The firm has a broad spectrum of expertise across the legal spectrum. One way to start a working relationship is when you sell a property, remember that the seller has the prerogative to appoint the conveyancer.

“Maynard Menon Govender Singh Inc embodies the original spirit of the struggle for freedom and development that characterised the liberation of South Africa. Sadly, so much of that ethos and so many of those values dedicated to building the post-apartheid ‘good society’ have been lost in the headlong pursuit of naked primitive accumulation. Yet this law firm stands proudly and full-square behind those earlier and noble ideals, while remaining strongly embedded in our modern and volatile global and national context. This much is evident in the striking architecture of its Westville head office, in the historic artefacts that pepper its walls and in the quality and care exercised by its diverse team of lawyers and specialised personable staff. It is without doubt, a beacon to the kind of company all South Africans should aspire to build. As a friend of the firm, I wish them well in the years ahead.”

- Vishnu Padayachee (1952 -2021) – former distinguished professor and Derek Schrier and Cecily Cameron Chair in Development Economics at Wits School of Economics and Finance. With seven full-time conveyancers, 15 full-time attorneys and a handpicked selection of industry expert consultants, the firm offers a full spectrum of legal services.

“This is one of the best law firms that I have dealt with. I recommend Maynard Menon Govender Singh without hesitation.”

Ian Odendaal, CEO at Omnigro Property Developers (Cape Town).
