Edward Zuma slapped with lawsuit for 'unpaid' legal fees after hate speech court case.
However, our sister publication TimesLIVE has established that the legal firm was still waiting for feedback from the sheriff on whether Zuma had been located to receive the letter of demand.
A day before the matter was set to go back to court last month, Zuma’s attorneys told Durban’s Equality Court in a letter that their client had settled his debt after making an outstanding payment of R12,500. A month later, the court heard that Zuma had paid the outstanding R12,500 for Ohlange into his lawyer’s trust fund. However, the legal firm assumed that it was a portion of fees owed to them by Zuma and did not pass on the money. He had already paid Umthombo and owed Ohlange R12,500.
