OLIVIA MELTZER

Olivia Rose Meltzer is currently a Candidate Attorney at the Claremont branch, embarking on her second rotation in the litigation department. She commenced her studies at the University of Cape Town in 2016 and graduated with an LLB in 2019. Whilst completing her degree, Olivia worked at non-profit organisations such as the UCT Law Clinic and LAWCO. Her community work opened her eyes to the overwhelming number of people who have neither the means nor access to legal representation. Working under the supervision of qualified attorneys, she was able to provide underprivileged and vulnerable members of society with pro bono legal services. She hopes one day to meaningfully contribute to increasing access to justice in South Africa. When she is outside the office, Olivia enjoys spending her time cooking, reading, trail running, and socializing with friends. She absolutely adores animals and works part-time for both African Tails and EARS.
