Considered counsel for matters that cannot be delegated.
Dlepu Seabela Rapudi Incorporated is a deliberately compact, youth-led firm practising commercial litigation, business rescue and restructuring, corporate advisory, conveyancing and notarial work.
"A firm should be judged on the matters it is trusted to carry — not the ones it chooses to announce."
The firm is registered as a personal liability company in terms of the Legal Practice Act. Instructions are carried by a director from first consultation to final judgment, never handed off past the point of oversight.
Our clients include owner-managed businesses, agricultural corporates, financiers and individuals facing disputes with real commercial consequence.
What we are instructed on.
A narrow set of practice areas, carried deeply rather than broadly.
Commercial Litigation
High-value commercial disputes and complex multi-party litigation across the Lower and Superior Courts, including appellate proceedings.
Business Rescue & Restructuring
Business rescue proceedings, restructuring strategy and creditor engagement — from first instruction to final determination.
Insolvency & Liquidations
Liquidations, sequestrations, insolvency investigations and related High Court applications and opinions.
Corporate & Commercial Advisory
Commercially informed advisory work, contract drafting and governance support for owner-managed and corporate clients.
Conveyancing & Notarial
Property transfers, bond registrations, antenuptial contracts and notarial work handled with directorial oversight.
Criminal Litigation & Appeals
Criminal defence, bail applications and the prosecution of appeals, including bail appeals before the higher courts.
Three directors. One standard of attention.
