M Barnard-Smit Law is a specialist firm looking after property transfers, deceased estates and notary public & apostille services. Focused, personal attention — and the detail done right the first time.
We deliberately keep our practice focused, so that conveyancing, estate administration and notarial work are handled by someone who does it every day — not occasionally.
Property is usually the biggest transaction of a lifetime. We register transfers correctly, on time, and keep you informed at every step of the Deeds Office process.
Losing someone is hard enough without the paperwork. We guide executors and families through the Master of the High Court process with patience and clarity.
Some documents need more than an attorney's signature. As notary public we execute and certify documents for use in South Africa — and around the world.
M Barnard-Smit Law is run by Madelyn Barnard-Smit, attorney, conveyancer and notary, based in Somerset West in the Western Cape. The firm specialises in the three areas where detail decides the outcome: conveyancing, deceased estates and notarial services.
When you instruct this firm, you deal directly with your attorney — not a call centre. Files move quickly, questions get answered, and every registration is checked before it reaches the Deeds Office or the Master of the High Court.
M Barnard-Smit Law operates in close association with the established Somerset West firm Saunders Osborne van der Watt, combining specialist attention with the strength of a firm serving the community since 1984.
A well-established Western Cape firm of Attorneys, Notaries and Conveyancers, founded in 1984 and based here in Somerset West, serving local, international and corporate clients across commercial, litigation, consumer and property law. We work in close association with them — which means consultations, signings and service delivery happen from their offices, with the same personal standard you expect from M Barnard-Smit Law.
