When Good Faith Is Exploited: Why LFN Is Changing How We Take on New Cases
Excerpt: Liberty Fighters Network exists to defend ordinary South Africans against a State and banks with unlimited resources and legal budgets. Across hundreds of open matters, we continue to assist those who cannot afford legal representation — without charging a cent and without discrimination.
Over the years, LFN has conservatively invested more than R1 billion worth of legal work back into the public, a figure that continues to grow. While many quietly support this work, others save substantial legal costs and move on without acknowledging the value of what is, or was, done for them.
From 2026, LFN will implement a necessary policy change to preserve its ability to assist those who truly have no alternative. This article explains why that line has been drawn, what it costs to fight the State without remuneration, and why sustainability requires honesty, boundaries, and shared responsibility.
