I am Meerushini Govender, a daughter, wife, mother of 2 boys, attorney, council member on the Western Cape Provincial Legal Council and a Board member at my children's’ school.

After completing my higher education in KZN, and serving my articles in Kimberley, I moved to Johannesburg, where I joined Standard Bank and thereafter moved into private practice.

As an adventure and to offer my children (two boys aged 10 and 12) a better quality of life, I decided to move to the Western Cape in 2014.  The decision has never been regretted, as I have fallen in love with the region, especially my hometown of Somerset West.

After a short sabbatical, I returned to private practice and now serve as a Director at Miller Bosman Le Roux. I practise in the Litigation Department and I am very passionate about working in the field of Family Law. In as much as Family Law can be challenging, it is also rewarding when you finalise a divorce or maintenance matter where the parties are satisfied and the children's’ rights and needs are upheld of which is the utmost importance.

I have a few but deep areas of passion:  When I am not working or watching my boys play sport, I am entertaining family and friends through cooking authentic meals from around the world (e.g. Indian, Greek/Mediterranean) which provides immense satisfaction and relaxation. My late nights are spent reading a wide range of fictional material. 

I look forward to sharing with you my views on the legal and social issues.
