At Epoq Legal, we believe everyone should have access to justice.
South Africa is home to 57.7 million people, many of whom simply cannot afford or don’t have access to legal services. As such, they are reliant on non-profit organisations who in turn partner with law firms and other institutions in order to make services like advice or legal services available.
JusDraft provides NPO’s and other organisations the necessary information to make legal services available to those in need.
In 2018 we were invited to take part in HiiL’s Innovating Justice Challenge and ultimately entered their prestigious Justice Accelerator program. Together with various supporters we designed and built a platform that provides non-profit organisations with a range of information and related and supporting to enable them to help people in the communities they serve.
We approached various organisations who share the mission of helping millions of people and together we’ve created JusDraft.
Together we believe we can make a difference!

Joint founders, JusDraft
“HiiL strongly believes that innovation is needed in the justice domain to prevent or resolve pressing justice problems for citizens around the globe. JusDraft is a great example in contributing to that challenge. Their solution is ready to support thousands of citizens in getting their legal documents.”
“From day to day problems to big world issues, South African women and children have a lot to worry about! They fight social and legal obstacles around almost every corner and often give up on finding legal support when they need help the most. LAW FOR ALL works tirelessly to break down the barriers to justice - making the law more affordable and accessible - and empowers women and children to enforce their rights.
'Together with JusDraft, we hope to have a hugely positive impact on as many vulnerable lives as possible.”
“Debt Rescue has enabled thousands of South Africans to pay off their debts in an affordable manner.
As one of the most prominent players in the industry, Debt Rescue’s impeccable reputation is of the utmost importance to us. We endeavour to provide the best customer service and debt management help in South Africa. One aim is to offer convenient and affordable Debt Counselling in South Africa. Our services span across the entire country so, no matter where in South Africa you live, contact us for help.”
“Much like JusDraft, Baobab is in the business of empowering people when it comes to legal issues. Specifically, making the law and its processes easier for the general public to understand. We do so by producing a range of helpful legal video tutorials in association with lawyers and law firms.
We are proud to be working with a platform with the same moral standing and objectives as our own; together making justice more accessible and a possibility for all.”
“Most NGO’s face two material problems - firstly how to properly run their organisations and secondly seeking funding in order to expand the incredible work they are already doing. NGO Advisor provides the necessary training and support to ensure adequate compliance measures and processes are in place and thereafter assist in marketing the NGOs to over 1,500 donors both locally and internationally.
We believe in making a real difference and together with JusDraft we can alter the NGO landscape the lives of all South Africans.”
“Ricardo Wyngaard Attorneys is a dynamic and unconventional law practice that specialises in non-profit law and governance. We offer appropriate, practical and current advice and assistance to NPOs and their donors. Some of these resources have been made available to NPOs in collaboration with JusDraft.
Together with JusDraft, we hope to make a real difference and a brighter tomorrow.”
