VELILE TINTO CAPE INC


HISTORY

 

Anton der Kinderen and Abdullah Salie joined their talent and experience after being senior directors and old established firms to found Velile Tinto Cape Inc during 2005. We are a black owned firm in terms of the BEE definition.

Their goal was to take customer service in the legal property field to a new level with specific attention to client reporting and building relationships.

Nadine Pansegrouw and Louis van der Merwe joined since inception and helped build the firm into the concern it is now.

We have established a considerable national footprint of offices and a wide established correspondent base, ensuring that we are able to provide any client with service anywhere in the country. Our practice has founded itself in focused fields of law, and our core area of expertise and experience focuses itself in Property Law.

 

MISSION STATEMENT AND PHILOSOPHY

 

Velile Tinto Cape Inc is built on the foundation of excellence in service to its clients and integrity in its dealings.  We give our best attention to our clients at all times and ensure that our clients are frequently updated on the progress of their matters. We are at the forefront of Legal and business development. We strive to always exceed our experienced yet dynamic reputation.

We have a wide and diversified client base and are approached on a weekly basis by new companies, in order to assist them with their conveyancing and commercial requirements.

We consider ourselves as a family business, treating our clients as part of our family.

 

THE SUCCESS OF VELILE TINTO CAPE

 

We headhunt only the best personnel because we believe that with the right staff and motivated people we can achieve success.  Regular training courses and staff meetings are held to enhance service and productivity. We have blended BEE with expertise in the way we believe to be correct.

We believe that an informed client is a satisfied client.  Our company uses the "sms and email facility" from the AVID vendor.  This facility notifies the client immediately when the bond instruction is received from the bank, when lodgement takes place, when the deed is up on prep, when registration takes place etc.  Over and above this facility all our files are available for inspection at all times. Al clients receive a log-in code with which they may inspect their matters. As a result our clients are kept up to date on the status of their matter.

The firm has a three hundred and sixty degree feedback policy.  Management ensures that all policies and standards are consistently adhered to and provides coaching to all staff.  Our employees are given the opportunity to attend courses to expand their knowledge and skills.

 

BLACK ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT (BEE)

 

Our Firm is a black owned legal practice and exceeds all current legislation and policies with respect to black economic empowerment.  We are proud to confirm that in terms of the current codes of good practice, we are one hundred percent black empowered.

Our celebration of current Labour Legislation and trends regarding employment equity ensures that our progressive Affirmative Action initiative is succeeding on a merit basis.  We are very proud of our current BEE status, and help those who want to improve themselves.
