We represent clients before all courts and tribunals in Kenya, from the Magistrates Courts and the High Court through to the Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court. Our work covers commercial, civil, constitutional, employment, and regulatory disputes. We handle matters from the first letter of demand through trial and appeal, and we move quickly to secure interim relief, such as injunctions and preservation orders, when a client's position is at risk.
We conduct domestic and international arbitrations, including matters seated at the Nairobi Centre for International Arbitration, Chartered Institute of Arbitrators, Kenya and under other major rules. Our role runs from drafting clear arbitration clauses at the contract stage to advising on tribunal appointments, presenting the case, and enforcing or challenging awards under the Arbitration Act and the New York Convention. Arbitration gives clients a private and often faster route to a binding result.
We advise insurers, brokers, insured businesses, and individual claimants. Our work includes policy drafting and interpretation, claims handling, defence of liability claims, subrogation, and recovery. We handle motor, workplace, professional indemnity, and public liability matters, focusing on resolving claims fairly and efficiently while protecting our clients' exposure.
We guide clients through share and asset acquisitions, disposals, joint ventures, and restructurings from start to finish. Our work covers deal structuring, legal due diligence, negotiation and drafting of sale and purchase agreements, and the conditions that must be met before completion. We manage merger control and clearance with the Competition Authority of Kenya and the COMESA Competition Commission for cross-border transactions, along with any sector-specific regulatory approvals, and we support clients through post-completion integration.
We act for lenders and borrowers on secured and unsecured lending, project finance, trade finance, and syndicated facilities. Our work includes preparing and perfecting security such as charges and debentures, advising on regulatory compliance with the Central Bank of Kenya framework, and handling restructurings and debt recovery. We focus on bankable documentation that protects the lender and works for the borrower.
We handle conveyancing, leasing, development, and property finance for landlords, tenants, developers, and investors. Our work includes title due diligence, sale and purchase transactions, commercial leases, sectional property, and the security and consents required for property finance. We help clients close property deals with a clean title and clear terms.
We advise on tax planning and structuring, and we represent clients in disputes with the Kenya Revenue Authority, including objections, appeals, and proceedings before the Tax Appeals Tribunal. Our work covers income tax, value-added tax, withholding tax, and stamp duty on instruments and property transfers. We help clients meet their obligations while lawfully managing their tax burden.
We advise on the legal framework that governs aircraft and aviation operations in Kenya. Our work covers aircraft acquisition, leasing, and financing; registration and regulatory compliance with the Kenya Civil Aviation Authority; operator licensing; liability and insurance; and the resolution of aviation-related disputes. We help airlines, operators, lessors, and financiers manage risk in a highly regulated sector.
We advise on cross-border trade in goods and services, including contracts of sale, customs, import and export licensing, and the regional frameworks that shape trade across the East African Community and the African Continental Free Trade Area. We help clients structure trade transactions, manage trade finance, and stay compliant as the rules evolve.
We investigate counterparties, acquisition targets, and transactions so that clients commit with a clear view of the risk. Our work includes corporate and litigation searches, sanctions and know-your-customer screening, and reputational checks, with particular value for investors entering Kenya and the wider region. We turn findings into practical advice on whether and how to proceed.
We advise individuals and corporate clients on work permits, special passes, dependant passes, permanent residence, and citizenship. We also support employers with the compliance obligations that come with hiring foreign nationals. We aim to keep clients and their people lawfully in place with as little disruption as possible.

Our audits cover data protection under the Data Protection Act, anti-money laundering obligations, sector-specific regulation, and general corporate governance. We deliver a clear picture of where the gaps are and a practical plan to close them.
