Simon Dippenaar

Attorney Simon Dippenaar has a BBusSc LLB degree and Professional Diploma in Legal Practice from the University of Cape Town, and is an admitted attorney of the High Court of South Africa. He is the founder and director of private legal practice, Simon Dippenaar & Associates, with offices in Cape Town and Gauteng representing South African and international clients.

Simon’s dedication, diplomacy and compassionate approach extend from Family Law to each of his fields of expertise and have earned him a reputation for cracking cases where his competitors have failed. His associates are appointed for their skills specific to their areas of practice. In these pages, Simon’s devotion to the legal profession is evident in the quotes from SD Law’s appreciative clients (names withheld to respect confidentiality).

Simon is committed to serving his community and the less fortunate. He is on record in one of South Africa’s biggest mass eviction cases in Marikana, representing, pro bono, the unlawful occupiers and their constitutional right to adequate housing.

Simon is an executive member of the South African Police Services Forum and is head of finance, as well as a long standing member of Rotary International and member of the Cape Chamber of Commerce.

Craig Wilkinson, Founder and Executive Director of Father A Nation, recently on TEDx described Simon’s approach as one that, first and foremost, strives to achieve “high EQ win-win” resolutions.
