Raising a child on your own in itself can be daunting. On top of that, doing so without proper support from the other biological parent of your child can cause you to lose hope. Luckily, the Justice System of South Africa has made provision for this in the Maintenance Act. The Maintenance Act was brought into legislation to ensure that the basic rights of your child are met, and that guardians tha
t have a responsibility to your child meet the ethical expectations of shaping the development of your child. What does all this mean, though? You can claim on legal grounds for support of your child. However, many people do not know how to go about doing so. That is where we come in.

This means that we help people fill in their applications correctly, accurately calculate cost allocation by the methods used by the Court, where you must go to submit your application, and much, much more. We walk from “A to Z” with you to ensure your situation is heard fairly by the court and ultimately, to assist you in meeting the needs of your child. Since we have experience in claiming for child maintenance, we know the in’s and out’s that will help you get what you need for your child.
