Mauritian legal services for South African clients
A move, purchase or family matter can place Mauritian law beside South African arrangements. The documents and advisers should be coordinated from the outset.
the Mauritian question
Acting for South Africans in Mauritius
The chambers advises South African clients on Mauritian property, family, succession and commercial matters. The first task is to identify which question belongs in which country.
Me Mokshda Pertaub has practised at the Mauritian Bar since 1998 and is a former Director of the Institute for Judicial and Legal Studies, appointed January 2017.
Property and residence
A non-citizen purchase may require Economic Development Board approval. Its timing belongs to the authority. Independent property advice should begin before signature.

Mauritian succession is considered under the Code Civil Mauricien. South African advice remains distinct. Family matters begin with the marriage, children and residence facts.
