How do we assist
start-ups?
At Günther Attorneys & Conveyancers, we work closely with start-up businesses, solo entrepreneurs and growing SMEs who need legal clarity and compliance from day one. We don’t offer theoretical advice—we put practical legal structures in place to protect your business, your income and your relationships from the start.
If you're launching a new venture or formalising something you've already started, we’ll help you get the essentials in place without overlawyering the process or overwhelming you with jargon.
We advise on and draft key contracts including service agreements, independent contractor agreements, client terms of service, privacy policies, website terms, and refund or cancellation policies. We ensure your paperwork is aligned with South African legislation and tailored to how your business actually operates.
Commercial Contracts
We also help you assess your regulatory exposure and build custom legal frameworks that allow you to operate safely and scale sustainably.
If you're hiring your first team member, working with freelancers, or delivering services to the public, you need proper contracts. We make sure they’re in place, clear, and enforceable.
Whether you need a once-off legal pack or ongoing advisory as your business grows, we offer structured, no-nonsense support that helps you stay compliant and confident.
Let’s build your business on solid legal ground.
