Thank you so much for attending to the transfer and for being so efficient. It has been such a pleasure to work with you.

Debbie , Private client

It just remains for me to thank you very much for all the work involved in getting us to this end point - a point I'm sure we all wondered if we'd ever see at some stage or other. I would also like to thank your conveyancing department who was wonderful at communicating during the sale of the house.

Jayne, Private client

Baie dankie, dit is ’n verligting dat my pa se boedel afgehandel is – alle dank weereens aan jou. Baie dankie vir die professionele manier waarop jy alles hanteer het, al jou moeite met die ‘ekstras’ en die gereelde kommunikasie om ons op hoogte te hou. Ons sal kontak behou!

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for the opportunity you have afforded me of completing Vacation Work with your firm. I have enjoyed my time spent with you, and it has been an absolute pleasure to learn more about your firm, and the legal world. I am so appreciative of the warm welcome by all of your colleagues, and the manner in which we interacted throughout my time here. I hope to return for more Vacation Work this year, and I am exceedingly eager to apply to complete my articles with you, as I have just about fallen in love with your firm and the family that it hosts.

Tamara Foyn, Vacation Work Candidate

Testimony of great service delivery: Miller, Bosman, Le Roux Attorneys are always going the extra mile, or in this case many kilometers, for our agents. Isabel drove all the way to Caledon today to collect keys from an owner for CoC repairs to be done tomorrow to ensure that a transaction can register as soon as possible. Thank you to Grant HILL and Isabel HART. Going upHILL (pun intended) for our agents shows your HeARTs (pun intended) are in the right place.

Elwee van der Merwe, Private client
Keller Williams Dynamic

I believe in giving credit where it is due, Miller Bosman Le Roux, attorneys what a great experience. Professional and compassionate service. Alno Smit, our journey thus far has been one of trust, you are greatly appreciated. This company is highly recommended.
