Lockdown Admission of Guilt Fines – The Criminal Record Risk

Published on: 04/03/2025

Lockdown lawbreakers face penalties, but be cautious of "admission of guilt" fines. Paying one might seem simpler than court, but could lead to a criminal record. This has lifelong consequences, affecting travel visas and job applications. A criminal record often results from arrest, fingerprinting, and conviction. Admission of guilt fines can lead to a "deemed" conviction. Removing a record is difficult, requiring expungement after 10 years for minor offenses or a court appeal. Seek advice before paying any admission of guilt fine.

Life Partners: Beware the “Common Law Marriage” Myth!

Published on: 04/03/2025

South African law doesn't recognize "common law marriage." Cohabitating couples have no automatic legal rights or duties like married couples. A "domestic partnership agreement" (cohabitation agreement) is crucial. It should detail financial arrangements during the relationship and upon separation or death, including asset division, maintenance, and liability allocation. Wills are equally vital, as intestacy laws don't protect surviving partners. Without these, you risk losing everything after a breakup or the death of your partner. While limited rights exist in some areas (e.g., child maintenance), relying on these is risky. A cohabitation agreement is the best way to safeguard your future.
