Family-owned law firm in Alberton

Clear legal counsel from a family that has served the law for decades

    Experienced defence at every stage, from the first phone call to the courtroom.

  • Conveyancing

    Property transfers done properly, so your biggest asset changes hands without surprises.

  • Debt counselling

Meet the Ewarts

Two generations of one family, practising law under one roof in Alberton.

Walter Ewart Snr

Advocate, retired magistrate and NCR-registered debt counsellor

Walter Snr spent decades as a magistrate before returning to practice as an advocate. Few lawyers can tell you how a case looks from the bench. Walter can, and that perspective shapes the advice he gives every client, in negotiation and at trial alike. As a debt counsellor registered with the National Credit Regulator (NCR), he also helps families restructure debt lawfully and realistically.

Walter Ewart Jnr

Attorney

Walter Jnr has represented clients in a wide range of matters, from negotiating settlements to arguing in court. He carries the family standard: know every client personally, explain the law in plain language, and pursue the best achievable outcome, not just the easiest one.

You will never be just a number.

Bigger firms pass your file to whoever is available. At Ewart Attorneys, the person you meet on day one is the person who handles your matter to the end. We take the time to understand what you actually need, and we are honest about what the law can and cannot do for you.
