Florida Business Overview

‘We at AED Attorneys are a family who have compassion for our clients and our dedicated team offers guidance and assistance to you and your family during the difficult time of losing a loved one.’
They understand that dealing with your loved one’s affairs may be a complicated and confusing process. For this reason they render estate administration services to any person who has nominated them as executors in their Last Will and Testament. The same applies if the deceased did not leave a valid will (died intestate). They further act as agents in the case of a non-professional executor having been appointed.
Here they offer some guidance to the process that needs to be followed when a person passes away and the services they provide: Reporting the estate to the Master of the High Court, who appoints a representative to deal with the deceased’s affairs – an executor; communicating with all debtors and creditors; taking control, protecting and transferring of all assets (house, car, bank accounts); dealing with SARS; paying all debts and administration expenses, as well as drafting and submitting the Liquidation and Distribution Account.
At AED Attorneys they will ensure that your hard-earned legacy will be well taken care of. With trust and respect, AED Attorneys will stand by you and your family throughout your time of need, creating a valued partnership for life. Contact 011 033 8701 or visit www.aedattorneys.co.za.

Vumatel thrives on building networks in partnership with the community; connecting homes, complexes and apartment blocks to super-fast world-class fibre broadband. Vumatel connects certified primary and high schools to free 1Gbps fibre broadband when deploying the network in a suburb. Vumatel builds an open-access fibre network which means that Vumatel is not a service provider but rather the installers of the infrastructure.
Residents can choose from 47 internet service providers for internet packages starting at R424 per month. The open-access nature of the network prevents the duplication of infrastructure and drives down prices for the end-user. The recent boom in the deployment of fibre optic infrastructure makes it hard to believe that 10 years ago, you couldn’t make a phone call from your landline and surf the internet at the same time.

This autumn at EyeLove Optometrist the focus is on being active. Who doesn’t like sport, whether it is watching sport, participating or just being active with family and friends? Surely you have heard about the increased risks and harmful effects of too much UV light exposure to your eyes. Extended exposure to the sun’s UV rays has been linked to eye damage that can cause temporary vision loss. UV preventative coatings help with blocking the harmful UV rays, but it does not block glare or reflections. Polarisation added, on the other hand, gives the ultimate protection against UV light, glare and reflections. Buy a Move frame for your spectacles and get a pair of Move polarised sunglasses free!
