Pietermaritzburg

This morning we had an appointment with Gavin, the director of Randles attorneys who offered to help us with notarizing the documents. He was really friendly and helpful and this part was done really quick and easy. He gave us instructions on how to get to the High Court and where to park etc and after telling him how grateful we were for helping us during the holidays we left his office again to go to the High Court for the very last step of the process. Unfortunately here we were a bit less lucky since the lady at High Court refused to do her job and convinced us that this was the attorneys job. So we contacted Gavin again who said he wasn't allowed to give the Apostille stamp, that was really something High Court had to do. Eventually we left High Court and went back to Gavin where he still tried and thought of how he could be of any further help but eventually we just came to the conclusion that the lady at High Court didn't feel like doing her job and sent us away while she was supposed to help us. We ended up leaving the documents with Gavin and he will send someone from his office in the morning of the 2nd of January to basically get the staff at High Court to do their job. Unfortunately this means we can't get the application done while we're still together but we really trust Gavin and are convinced that he will get this last step done for us meaning we can do the application hopefully on the 2nd or 3rd of January 🤞Read more
