We are committed to going the extra mile to meet our clients’ needs.

Our success is measured not only by successful property transactions and cases settled or won but by the trust and satisfaction reflected in the referrals we receive from our clients.
MEET VANESSA

I am an admitted attorney, notary, and conveyancer practising in Sunningdale, Cape Town. I embarked on a transformative journey into law in 2012 after a successful 20-year career in commerce. My career trajectory spans three decades, merging corporate and legal spheres. This hybrid experience has afforded me a unique and instinctive understanding of my clients’ needs, the law and its practical applications. I recognise the frustration of grappling with legal issues, having once been on the other side of the boardroom table.
I took the bold step of pursuing my Bachelor of Laws (LLB) in 2012. I joined Neilsons Attorneys as a candidate attorney in 2013 and painstakingly acquired new skills in the the legal realm while studying towards my LLB. I obtained my LLB degree in 2017 and was admitted as an Attorney in 2018. I continued my studies and was admitted as a Notary Public and Conveyancer in 2019. Furthermore, I have the Right of Appearance in the High Court, Supreme Court of Appeal and Constitutional Court.
I took another bold step in 2023 and formed V Thomas Attorneys. I strive to empower my clients by demystifying the complexity of the law into plain, workable concepts thereby enabling them to make the best decisions in their matters.
I am currently serving on the CTAA (Cape Town Attorneys Association) executive committee for the second consecutive year and serve on the Deeds Office and Master of the High Court subcommittee portfolios.
At V Thomas Attorneys we place a premium on mediation, adopting a practical win/win outcomes-based approach. My real-world perspective ensures that clients not only navigate legal complexities but also feel in control and well-equipped to manage their matters.
Join me in understanding law, not just as a set of rules, but as a dynamic force shaping real-world outcomes. At V Thomas Attorneys we are committed to making the law accessible, empowering you to navigate its intricacies with confidence.
