Tim Mills Memorial Bursary

The Tim Mills Memorial Bursary for post graduate studies has been established in 2013 in memory of Tim Mills, a former director of Cliffe Dekker Hofmeyr.

Tim passed away on 24 May 2012. He was an exceptional employment lawyer but it was his incredibly generous spirit and irrepressibly good nature that endeared him most to colleagues, clients and the broader Cliffe Dekker Hofmeyr family.

The Tim Mills Memorial Bursary is awarded to candidates intending to register for any LLM degree at a South African university.

The bursary will cover university/tuition fees only up to a maximum total amount of R25 000 per student for the duration of his/her studies.

This bursary may be awarded on an annual basis. The bursary committee reserves the right not to award this bursary in any particular year.

The following conditions apply to this bursary:

The successful candidate will be required to –

• provide updated academic results and progress reports if and when required;
• attend one of the Cliffe Dekker Hofmeyr vacation programmes for law students and
• agree to a right of first refusal with regard to articles of clerkship.
