In this episode of LAW'D have Mercy, we speak to Rebecca Kooiker from Pop Up Weddings South Africa, about inclusivity and choice in the wedding industry. We chat love, law, non traditional couples and marriage. We are firm believers in making "law for everyone", especially when it comes to how couples choose to make their love "official". Rebecca, Jules and their team share this belief too and apply this to how they help couples to tie the knot.

In celebration of mental health month, Sinal chats to fellow lawyer and friend, Grace, about facing and dealing with mental health challenges in a legal career.

“Making it official” is not all cake tasting and dress fittings! In this episode, we delve into the different marriage contracts available to South African couples. The legal aspects of marriage can be a bit confounding and we chat to two experts who break down the in’s and out’s of formalising relationships.

In this episode we chat to our intern, Nomsa Maswera, to get a fresh perspective on law!

In this episode, we hit the pause button and reflect on the past six months of life at pop.law. We chat about why we started pop.law and how it came to pass that we opened shop on day one of level five lockdown. There’re been highs, lows, successes and mistakes... and we are only getting started!

Covid-19 has changed the way we all work - probably forever. Companies are realising that this economic downturn means a very uncertain future, and many have decided to restructure their businesses to mitigate the risk of closing completely by reducing the working hours of some employees and retrenching others. In this episode, we chat to specialist labour lawyer, Hayley Mackay about the do's and do not's of retrenchment.
