About Lydea Horn Attorney

Lydea Horn Attorney is a one-attorney practice at 42 Sir David Baird Drive in Bloubergstrand. Lydea Horn holds a BA LLB from Stellenbosch and has run her own firm since 2002, after several years in practice elsewhere. Her support staff have been with her for many years, and she says the firm has grown through referrals rather than advertising.

From the start the practice has taken only family-law work. That means local and foreign divorces, from simple to heavily contested ones, maintenance claims and interim maintenance while a divorce runs, disputes about the care of and contact with children, and family violence protection orders. The firm is building up a mediation service and says it can already mediate where a matter calls for it. It refers clients to a network of other professionals, such as psychologists and financial assessors, when a case needs them.

The first consultation is charged at R2 200 plus VAT per hour, and the rate after that is agreed with each client depending on how complex the matter is. Consultations can also be held in central Cape Town.
