Terms of Use

The content of this website is provided for general information purposes only. It does not constitute legal advice and should not be relied upon as a substitute for professional legal advice tailored to your specific circumstances.

While Manala & Co Incorporated seeks to keep the information on this website accurate and up to date, we make no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, about the completeness, accuracy, reliability or availability of the information, products, services or related graphics contained on the website.

Nothing contained on this website constitutes legal advice. The practice area descriptions, insights and other content are provided for informational purposes only and reflect general principles of South African law as understood at the time of writing.

Legal issues are frequently fact-specific, and the application of legal principles may vary significantly depending on the circumstances. You should consult a suitably qualified legal practitioner for advice on your particular matter.

Use of this website, including submission of an enquiry through the contact form, does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and Manala & Co Incorporated.

An attorney-client relationship is formed only after a formal mandate has been agreed in writing and any required conflict of interest check has been completed. Until that occurs, any communication you send to the firm through this website may not be treated as confidential or privileged, and the firm may represent parties with interests adverse to yours.

The outcome of any legal matter depends on numerous factors, many of which are outside the control of the firm or any legal practitioner. Manala & Co Incorporated does not guarantee any particular outcome in respect of any matter.

Past results, settlements or reported matters do not guarantee or predict similar outcomes in other cases. Each matter must be assessed on its own facts and merits.

Unless otherwise stated, the content of this website — including text, graphics, logos, icons, images, audio and video clips, and software — is owned by or licensed to Manala & Co Incorporated and is protected by South African and international intellectual property laws.

You may view, copy and print portions of this website for your own personal, non-commercial use, provided that all copyright and other proprietary notices remain intact. Any other use, including reproduction, modification, distribution or republication, without the prior written consent of the firm, is strictly prohibited.

In particular, you agree not to:

• Use the website in any way that breaches any applicable local, national or international law or regulation;
• Attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the website, its systems or networks;
• Submit content that is unlawful, defamatory, threatening, harassing or otherwise objectionable;
• Introduce viruses, trojans, worms or other malicious code to the website; or
• Use the website to send unsolicited communications or for any commercial purpose without our prior written consent.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Manala & Co Incorporated, its directors, employees, agents and affiliates shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special or exemplary damages arising out of, or in connection with, your use of, or inability to use, this website.

This includes, without limitation, damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, data or other intangible losses resulting from the use of, or reliance on, the website or its content. Nothing in these Terms of Use excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under South African law.

These Terms of Use are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of South Africa.
