Testimonials

R. Petersen

I needed legal assistance at a time in my life, when I thought I was and had nothing. Blake didn’t only guide me out of an extremely abusive relationship, with my child and dignity in tow, she made me see and believe that I had so much more to offer. With each step she navigated my case with her legal wit and confidence, which in turn gave me the confidence to know that I could do it. She was tough and never backed down, even when I wanted to. I really couldn’t have asked for someone better.

G. Templehoff

I’m more than happy to provide a reference for Blake Attorneys. I’ve known Lesley for over 13 years – she successfully assisted me in my divorce (after a twelve-year marriage with two children) which was finalised in court after only 7 weeks since inception. Post the divorce Lesley was able to sort out all personal issues arising from the divorce. Subsequently I have used Lesley to represent my business on various occasions and found favourable results. I have found Lesley to be a respectable attorney who runs her business with integrity and skill. She is always dependable, straightforward, honest and is always forthright with costs and hours billed. I highly recommend Lesley for any personnel or business legal counsel.

R. Dacey

In 2011, under very tragic circumstances involving my 3 x minor children, I was afforded a Probono Attorney from the Law Society, being Lesley Blake of Blake Attorneys. Following the Probono matter, I continued to experience ongoing litigation and High Court matters.
Lesley Blake continued to represent me in all my legal matters: from having to defend prejudiced High Court applications against me, having assisted me with my own High Court and Family Court applications, all pertaining to the enforcement of my parental rights. These matters have continued even up until this very day.
Having had to be subjected to the harsh and ruthless court and legal system, fighting for my parental rights for so many years has been emotionally traumatic to say the least. Each and every course of litigation, court appearance, court investigation, court appointed professional, Lesley Blake has been at my side, either representing me as my Attorney, litigating for me, advising me legally, mentoring me emotionally, fighting for me. Lesley Blake has always, without fail, gone the extra mile to assist me, whether it be working late into the night and on weekends, to have documentation prepared for court. I do not think that there is any other attorney in South Africa who would have fought for me as much as Lesley has. She is an excellent litigator and she has been excellent in my application and response matters in the High Court and Family court system.
