Bryanston firm started in 2010 by two Wits graduates, offering consumer, ICT and family law, French-language help, and a Riyadh office.
Audrey Berndt and Natasha La Vita met at Wits in 2002, graduated together in 2008 and served their articles at Logan Attorneys, a consumer law practice. They founded the firm in 2010 and incorporated it in 2013. It trades as BLV Attorneys from Block F, St Andrews Office Park, Meadowbrook Lane in Epsom Downs, Bryanston. In 2024 it opened an office in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, headed by Natasha. Audrey, who earlier worked at Routledge Modise Moss Morris, has right of appearance in the higher courts. She speaks French, acts as avocat-conseil to the French Consulate General in Johannesburg and assists French-speaking clients.
The firm started out in consumer law and still does a lot of it: credit rehabilitation, challenging judgments and blacklistings, and debt collection. It will quote for free if you email your credit report. Audrey leads litigation, ICT law, commercial contracts and POPIA work, including master service agreements, outsourcing, website terms and AI-related contracts for technology companies. Natasha covers corporate and consumer law, contracts and family matters such as divorce and children, and has worked closely with the Family Advocate. The firm also handles evictions, e-commerce compliance, wills and deceased estates.
The office is open Monday to Thursday from 08:00 to 16:30 and on Fridays until 16:00, and consultations are by appointment only.
Consumers with credit problems, tech and ICT businesses, French-speaking clients, families and multinational companies.
