Firm Profile: Mission Statement:

Barend Burgers is committed to his clients and places the focus on personal, friendly, efficient and expeditious service to the client, while not neglecting the high ethical standards laid down by the profession. Barend has indicated that he wants to use the technology of this modern age, namely e-mail and the internet, to keep clients informed about the progress of their cases. It is very fairly commonly known that the most frequent complaint by clients about their attorneys is that the clients don’t know what is going on with their cases. Barend submits that regular progress reports via e-mail can change that situation.

Although television programmes such as “Petrocelli”, “Matlock”, “Perry Mason” and “LA Law” have nothing to do with the South African legal environment and are in fact depicted as more glamorous, all these programmes have contributed to Barend Burgers’ interest in law and his inherent notion to strive for justice. His credo throughout his life has been (and will be in future) Fiat Iustitia! (Let justice be served!)
History: Barend Jacobus Burgers was born on the 22nd of April 1970 in Pretoria, where he currently resides. After matriculating in Pietersburg, Northern Province, Barend studied at the University of Pretoria where he was awarded a Baccalareus Legum Civilium (BLC) degree in 1991 and a Baccalareus Legum (LLB) degree in 1993. During 1994 and 1995 Barend studied at the University of Augsburg in Germany after having been granted a full bursary by the German Academic Exchange Service and was awarded a Magister Legum (LLM) degree in August 1995. Upon his return to South Africa Barend worked for a short period as a public prosecutor at Ellisras, during which time Barend completed a certificate course in constitutional litigation, whereafter he entered into a contract of articles with Schoeman Attorneys in Pietersburg. While attending the second night school of the School for Practical Legal Training in Pretoria during 1998, Barend also worked as a legal advisor for Redstar Networks (Pty) Ltd. Barend was awarded the Certificate for Best Overall Performance during the said night school together with certificates for outstanding performance in the following subjects:

During October 1998 Barend represented the night school in Juta’s National Litigation Competition and was awarded the 1st prize as winner of the competition in February 1999. Barend was finally admitted as an attorney on the 17th of June 1999.
