Practices

Six desks. No committee of twenty.

We do not practise everything. We practise the work that is decided in the High Court, at the CMA, in a land registry, or in a letter from a Kenyan regulator.

Litigation & Dispute Resolution

We appear. We do not warehouse files in the registry.

We conduct commercial, civil, and land disputes in the High Court (including Milimani Commercial), the Environment and Land Court, the Court of Appeal, and the Supreme Court of Kenya. We staff leanly, prepare before the first mention, and do not outsource the advocate who stands up.

Corporate, Commercial & Capital Markets

A transaction under the Companies Act is a series of decisions made under a clock.

We advise boards, sponsors, and founders on mergers, takeovers, private equity, and listings under the Companies Act 2015, the Competition Act, and the Capital Markets Act. The work is technical. The judgment is not.

Conveyancing, Land & Real Estate

The register is slow. Capital is not. We work in the gap.

We handle transfers, leases, charges, sectional title, and the assembly of land under the Land Act, the Land Registration Act, and the Sectional Properties Act — in Nairobi, at the Coast, and in the counties, including work before the National Land Commission.

Constitutional & Administrative Law

The 2010 Constitution is not a preface. It is the brief.

We conduct judicial review, petitions under the Bill of Rights, devolution disputes, and public-procurement challenges under the Fair Administrative Action Act, the PPADA, and Articles 22, 23, and 47 of the Constitution of Kenya, 2010.

Banking, Finance & Projects

Security, licences, and the document that must close on Friday.

We act for lenders, borrowers, and sponsors on Kenyan security, syndicated facilities, project finance, PPPs, and energy and infrastructure work before EPRA, the PPP Directorate, and the relevant county.

Employment, Labour & Arbitration

A hearing room at the NCIA is still a courtroom.

We advocate in the Employment and Labour Relations Court and in arbitrations seated in Nairobi under the Arbitration Act 1995, the NCIA Rules, and ICC. We also sit as arbitrator, though never in a case the firm could have taken as counsel.
