Lawyer in Flacq, Mauritius — Family, Estate & Civil Law
Acting for clients in Flacq
Flacq is the largest district on the east of the island, agricultural in character, with Centre de Flacq as its main town and a string of coastal villages beyond it. Land is the common thread in the work that comes from here: plots held in families for generations, informal arrangements between relatives that were never written down, and estates that stayed open because nobody wanted to be the one to raise it.
Family instructions from Flacq often involve maintenance and arrangements for children where one parent works away from the district or abroad. Those cases turn on documented income and on a clear account of what the child's week actually looks like — not on who argues best.
Which court hears a Flacq matter
The district is served by the District Court of Flacq. Section 93 of the Courts Act provides for a District Court in every district, each a court of record with limited civil and criminal jurisdiction; matters above those limits are heard higher in the court structure. We confirm the correct court and explain what its calendar means for your timetable before anything is filed. Source: the Supreme Court of Mauritius on the District Court.
Me Mokshda Pertaub and the Flacq bench
Me Mokshda Pertaub served on the bench at the District Courts of Flacq and Port-Louis in the early 2000s, before returning to practice at the Bar, where she has been since January 1998. Having sat in this district is not a promise of any outcome; it is a reason her advice starts from what a court will want to see in evidence.

Questions we are asked
Three that come up most often from this part of the island
An estate in our family has been open for years. Is it too late?
Usually not, though delay makes it harder and more expensive. Bring the title, the death certificate and any will, and we will tell you honestly where you stand.
The other parent has taken our child abroad. What do I do?
Contact the chambers immediately rather than waiting for the position to clarify. Child abduction matters move quickly and the earliest steps count disproportionately.
