2. Maluleke, Seriti, Makume, Matlala Incorporated (MSMM)
is justifiably proud that four of our founding directors
and an attorney it trained serve as Judges of the High
Court and Supreme Court of Appeal.
These are Judge George Maluleke (High Court of South
Africa, Gauteng Division Pretoria); Judge Legoabe
Seriti (The Supreme Court of Appeal); Judge Ntendeya
Mavundla (High Court of South Africa, Gauteng Division
Pretoria) and Judge Motsamai Makume (High Court of
South Africa, Gauteng Division Johannesburg).
We pride ourselves on our legacy and 40 years of
collective legal experience; a result of a successful
merger of four legal firms that constitute MSMM.
• Maluleke, Msimang and Associates: Established in
1974, this Kempton Park based firm established a
solid reputation in the field of motor vehicle accident
claims. One of its founding members, George
Maluleke, was formerly Vice Chair of the Road
Accident Fund (RAF).
• Seriti, Mavundla and Partners: As one of the first
partnerships formed by attorneys from disadvant-
aged communities, this firm was established in 1977.
It built a strong reputation in a variety of legal fields,
placing emphasis on client satisfaction and relentless
effort. The company achieved this by consulting
clients as regularly as possible and providing them
with ongoing progress reports.
• Makume and Associates: This firm was established
in 1997 after four law firms merged. Although
relatively new, some of the experience of its legal
partners dated back to 1980. The firm based its
practice on the belief that opportunities exist for
previously disadvantaged law firms to compete on
an equal basis with other law firms, especially when
securing clients in Government and major business
concerns. With its focus of continually being in
touch with the ever-changing legal system, it used
specialisationtoimprovethequalityofitslegalservices.
• Matlala Incorporated: Established in 1983, the
company initially focused on general legal practice
with emphasis on criminal, civil and matrimonial
matters. During the mid 1980s it made significant
contributions to the practice of human rights and
labour law, acting on behalf of COSATU, NACTU,
the Independent Trade Union Movement and
individual employees. Matlala Inc. was also involved
in major incidents of the struggle and State of
Emergency in South Africa through its representation
of the Mass Democratic Movement (MDM).
Matlala is the only one of the four original founding
directors who is now involved in MSMM as its CEO.

For the majority of South Africans, access to justice
remains a major challenge in a country where the law
plays a pivotal role in enabling a just and equitable
society. At MSMM, we are uniquely positioned to
appreciate the obstacles facing many of our clients,
primarily because some members of our executive have
personally faced similar challenges and injustices in their
own lives.
MSMM differentiators:
• Our legal specialists combine their personal and
professional experience with solid legal expertise
and a clear understanding of the South African legal
system to fulfill all briefs in the realisation of justice.
• As one of the country’s pioneering African law
firms and unprecedented legal history in the
judiciary, MSMM’s service offering is enriched by the
fact that it has, and continues to make a contribution
to the jurisprudence of South Africa’s new democracy.
• Our approach focuses on improving the current
legal imbalance in our justice system, by taking
the intricacies of different customs, indigenous
languages and cultures into account.
• We strive to empower our clients by ensuring they
know and understand their legal rights.
Why choose us?

6. In 2015, MSMM expanded its operations by securing associations with two

even wider variety of specialised legal services to our clients across the spectrum,

– Muziwakhe Anton Lembede, Oliver Reginald Tambo and Mokgonane Godfrey
Pitje. These men of stature have left behind a proud historical legacy of pursuing
and achieving social justice, equality and transformation in South Africa’s judiciary
and civil society.
It is with this in mind that the current directors of MSMM undertake to cherish and
uphold the legacy of Lembede, Tambo and Pitje through LTP Chambers.
The new resource will focus on bringing together attorneys to practise in an
environment that enables them to specialise in a wide variety of legal disciplines.
By offering various levels of membership, attorneys will jointly share operational
costs, while reducing the financial and administrative burden of running their own
individual single or partnership practices.
The Chambers comprises 20 offices for legal practitioners. Here, they will mutually
share and operate in the following legal specialisation areas:
• Commercial and corporate law
• Taxation and banking law
• Business rescue and liquidations
• Road accident fund (RAF), medical malpractice and medical insurance law
• Constitutional law and labour relations
• Military law, aviation and maritime law
• Property law and land rights
• Specialised litigation and alternative dispute resolution.
Legal practitioners who make use of the LTP Chambers will have joint access to the
following facilities:
• Administrative and support staff
• Financial systems
• IT systems and infrastructure
• Library and research services
• Boardroom and arbitration facilities
• Shared canteen services
• Handling of joint instructions and briefs.
In addition to housing member practitioners, the LTP Chambers aims to enhance the
skills of those using the Chambers by presenting training workshops and seminars.
MSMM’s founding members, directors and legal experts will share their know-how
and experience of core specialisation areas with the member practitioners.
Furthermore, LTP Chambers also operates a specialised alternative dispute resolution
agency. Through its own qualified mediators and arbitrators, the LTP Chambers offers
services in conducting disciplinary hearings, mediation and conciliation, arbitration
and adjudication as well as investigations and commissions of enquiry.

19. The merging of four legal firms in
2001, which constituted the conver-
gence of attorneys and directors who
had commenced practice individu-
ally or in partnership in the seventies,
represents 40 years of collective legal
practice and experience.
At the beginning, these firms focused
on criminal and civil matters, motor
vehicle accidents as well as human
rights. In the latter, they represented
activists and victims of the Apartheid
era as well as union officials and
members during a period of unpre-
cedented political turmoil in the
country’s history.
MSMM prides itself on recognising
the pivotal historical role played by its
founding directors. These individuals
were all actively involved in facing the
challenges of liberating South Africa
and fighting against the injustices of
the Apartheid regime.
The valuable contribution of MSMM’s
founding directors did not end there.
After the Apartheid regime had
unbanned the country’s liberation
movements, they participated in the
drafting of South Africa’s first demo-
cratic constitution. They also helped to
restructure the judicial system of both
the Higher and Lower courts.
Now, as MSMM continues to uphold
and be inspired by the 40-year old
legacy left behind by our founding
directors, we remain ever mindful
of our company vision; driven by a
passion for justice.
