One of the most important pillars of the South African Constitution is access to quality medical care. Unfortunately, with the overburdened public health sector many people will wait for days on end before being able to see a doctor. Therefore, more than 7 million South Africans are members of a medical scheme which gives them access to private medical care. However, this sector is not without its flaws either and there may be times when you need the assistance of medical lawyers when you have suffered unnecessarily.

Adele van der Walt Attorneys are passionate about helping South Africans fight for their constitutional rights and will do anything in their power to help clients.
