Explain why a lawyer has to consult various sources of law when trying to establish what the
existing South African law says about a legal question. Base your answer on your
understanding of the nature of the South African legal system.
In the South African legal system, a lawyer must consult various sources of law to establish
what the existing law says about a legal question. This is because the South African legal system
is based on a combination of different sources of law, each with its own authority and
relevance.
