Professional & Established

A Legacy of Legal Excellence

Established in the year 2000 by Mr. Jacobus Hendrik Schabort (known to his friends, clients and colleagues as Kobus), our firm has successfully navigated the numerous challenges which South Africa was faced with and developed into a successful commercial law practice, serving clients in all sectors of business, big or small.

Since

2000

Goal-driven Approach

In 2013, Nicolaas GC Potgieter (known to his friends, clients and colleagues as Reinhardt) joined the firm and thereafter became a partner. He brought with him a fresh, dynamic and goal-driven approach which has been expanded on continuously to date.

  • The name Schabort Potgieter Attorneys Incorporated demonstrates a synergy created by bridging years of experience and modern infrastructure, to ensure that effective service is rendered to the client.
  • We strive to excel on various levels by delivering legally sound advice or assistance without delay.

Passionate About Property

Our Conveyancing Department is led by Ulana Krugel-Vosloo, who joined the firm as a Partner in 2024. With a deep passion for property law, she brings a dynamic and integrated approach to conveyancing, recognising the important intersections between property law and related legal fields such as commercial, estate, and compliance law. Her leadership ensures that each transaction is approached holistically, with careful attention to both legal detail and the broader context impacting our clients’ property interests.

Winding Up With Care: Deceased Estates Expertise

Our Deceased Estates practice offers compassionate, efficient, and legally sound assistance during what is often a difficult time for families. We guide clients through every step of the estate administration process—from reporting the estate and obtaining Letters of Executorship, to settling liabilities and ensuring the proper transfer of assets, including immovable property. With a strong understanding of the interplay between estate law, conveyancing, and tax considerations, we provide a seamless, end-to-end service that prioritises clarity, compliance, and peace of mind for our clients.

Devoted team

Our firm has grown from a single practitioner to a devoted team of qualified professionals backed by an amazing support staff to seamlessly deal with each and every client’s matter to their absolute satisfaction.
