What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can apply litigation and administrative law expertise, work collaboratively on complex cases, grow in policy or compliance responsibilities, and contribute to positive client outcomes in a structured, professional environment.

I am an admitted legal practitioner with proven experience in litigation, administrative law, and statutory compliance, having supported trial preparation, drafted pleadings and settlement agreements, and delivered briefings to advocates. I combine meticulous attention to detail with strong research, negotiation and client-facing skills to produce pragmatic legal strategies and favourable outcomes.

At Natascha Pretorius Attorneys I managed case analysis, evidence review and legal drafting; at Herbie Oosthuizen & Associate I provided legal support on municipal governance, land-use planning and public procurement, and developed compliance frameworks and policy recommendations. I am highly organised, tech-proficient (Linux and Microsoft), and committed to collaborative, results-oriented practice.
