If I could give zero stars here, I would. The most incompetent people I've ever come across. Made an appointment with Andrew about a divorce and asked him how much they charge for a consultation. He said that the first meeting will be free. I asked him on the phone how much the divorce will cost and he said R3000. That was the only reason I agreed to meet up with him because R3000 sounded like something I could afford. The divorce is uncontested and straight forward. They couldn't do most of the work. The last bill received was R3 665 and that was what they said was due. Next thing I know there is a bill of over 20k and they're saying that's what I owe. Enquiring about that amount proved to be futile since the Accounts manager is a clueless rude woman. I am planning on lodging a complaint against this firm because seems like I'm not the only one who experienced that.

Stay away from this company! Stay clear! They will milk you for every cent you have. After four months, they cannot serve a divorce summons. They will go as far as asking you to directly deal with the sheriff of the court. Incompetent, inept, incapable. Don't be fooled by their visit to your home or office. That's just a sales pitch. They can't do the job. My divorce is straight forward. It's uncontested yet their charges to date is already eight thousand rand. When you call the office, you only speak to a receptionist (Charlotte), Emma, the lawyer is never available. Useless amateurs who are inept, incapable and inefficient.

MCB & Associates is a rip of company. I made an appointment with Andrew. I then cancelled the appointment, however he turned up and insisted he would wait for me. He explained the first consultation is free. I spoke to him less then 5mins when he told me fees would be min R 8000. I explained to him I will confirm the Tuesday. I signed the acknowledgement that I seen him however I did not sign his T&C. The following Tuesday Andrew did not contact me, I however am now receiving bills of R 2000 for first consultation. He is denying that he told me it was free. How can I be charged for a so called service that was less than 5min no advice given. They are rip off. IS this the way they make money. Tell clients free consultation then send bills. All client ripped off by MCB log complaints with the Law Society. The more people that come forward can help other people before they ripped off

Don't let this company blind-side you! They come with a high WARNING! This company advertised on multiple social platforms under websites specific to Free Law Advice and when they were contacted, I inquired on multiple occasions for them to confirm that the first meet & greet would be free. They confirmed this. Based up on this I booked an appointment with a JUNIOR consultant and also made the effort of asking my partner to contact this company and confirm one more time before we travel the 30-minute drive, that the meeting was free. Director Andrew McCabe confirmed three times telephonically that the meeting was 100% FREE unless we needed to take matters further. Lies. The next thing, I get a bill in its thousands asking me to pay a large sum of money for meeting with a DIRECTOR which was NEVER the case and that now all of a sudden this free consultation is a paid visit. Take note I DID NOT need any further assistance from this company for them to justify sending this account to me. MCB&Associates lie to potential clients to get them in, so they can take your money. Even following correspondence backwards and forwards and pointing out mistakes in their e-mail regarding fee structures and UNSIGNED Terms & Conditions, they amended the Directors fee to a Junior Consultant fee and though I am now forced to pay them this unforeseen amount, even now the Account Manager representing this law firm cannot even keep track of what payments have been made to date, to the point that I as a customer need to phone in and requests statements are sent to me to confirm payments made to them, for my own security now. Whatever you do - DO NOT contact or utilize this agency! They really are only in it for the money and don't care about anyone "under them".
