Terms of use

Last updated: 31 July 2026

1. Acceptance

This website is published by Rajesh Hiralall Attorneys Inc., a multi-discipline law firm practising in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal. By using this website, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree to them, please do not use this website.

2. General information, not legal advice

Protection orders are one of several practice areas at this firm. The content on this website, including the guides, FAQs and process pages, is provided for general informational purposes about South African law as it stood at the time of writing. It is not legal advice, it does not consider your particular circumstances, and it should not be relied upon or acted on as a substitute for advice from a qualified attorney.

The law changes, and every matter turns on its own facts. We make reasonable efforts to keep this content accurate and current, but we do not warrant that it is complete, up to date, or free of error, and we accept no liability for any loss arising from reliance on it.

3. No attorney-client relationship

Browsing this website, submitting the enquiry form, or otherwise contacting us through it, does not by itself create an attorney-client relationship between you and this firm. That relationship is established only once we have confirmed in writing that we are instructed to act for you, including any conflict check and engagement terms required by law.

Until that point, information you send us through this website is treated as confidential, but is not protected by legal professional privilege, and no obligation arises on our part to act on it, to respond by any particular time, or to protect your interests.

4. Not for emergencies

This website, its enquiry form and its listed contact channels are not monitored continuously and must not be used to report an emergency or a matter requiring an immediate police, medical or other emergency response. In an emergency, contact the South African Police Service on 10111, or the relevant emergency service directly.

5. Intellectual property

The text, design and layout of this website are owned by or licensed to Rajesh Hiralall Attorneys Inc., unless stated otherwise. You may view, download and print content from this website for your own personal, non-commercial use, provided you do not modify it and you keep any copyright or other proprietary notices intact. Any other use, including reproduction, distribution or republication, requires our prior written consent.

6. Third-party links and numbers

Where this website refers to courts, government departments, or other third-party organisations, we do so as a courtesy and for reference. We do not control those third parties, and we are not responsible for the accuracy of their information, their availability, or their conduct.

7. Availability

We aim to keep this website available and accurate, but we do not warrant that it will be uninterrupted, secure or error-free, and we may suspend, withdraw or change any part of it at any time without notice.

8. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by South African law, Rajesh Hiralall Attorneys Inc. accepts no liability for any loss or damage, whether direct or indirect, arising from your use of, or inability to use, this website, or from reliance on its content. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

9. Governing law

These terms are governed by the law of the Republic of South Africa, and any dispute arising from them falls within the jurisdiction of the South African courts.

10. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised. Continued use of this website after a change constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
