A Modern Approach to Legal Practice

Legal fees vary depending on the nature, complexity and requirements of each matter. We will discuss the applicable fees and payment arrangements with you before proceeding.

Yes you can. Many of our clients purchase properties while living and working oversees. We handle the entire process on your behalf including due diligence, negotiations and title transfers and keep you informed at every step.

The required documentation depends on whether the deceased left a valid Will (Testate Succession) or died without a Will (Intestate Succession) :

1. Intestate Succession (No Will - Letters of Administration):

• Original Death Certificate of the deceased;
• Letter from the local Area Chief listing all surviving spouses, children, and immediate dependents;
• Copies of National Identity Cards / Passports and Birth Certificates of all beneficiaries;
• Copies of ownership documents for all estate assets (Title Deeds, Logbooks, Share Certificates, Bank Statements);

2. Testate Succession (With a Will - Grant of Probate):

• Original Death Certificate;
• Original Last Will and Testament;
• Copies of National Identity Cards / Passports and Birth Certificates of all beneficiaries;
• Copies of ownership documents for all estate assets (Title Deeds, Logbooks, Share Certificates, Bank Statements);

Our Chambers Public Interest & Legal Aid Committee evaluates applications for pro bono (free) legal representation against rigorous public interest and vulnerability criteria:

• Indigent Financial Status: Verified inability of the applicant to afford private legal counsel or commercial retainer fees.
• Human Rights & Public Interest Significance: Matters involving constitutional fundamental freedoms, land disinheritance of widows/orphans, child protection, or unlawful forced evictions.
• Legal Merit & Absence of Other Representation: The case must have sound legal standing and the applicant must not have an active retained private advocate.
• Chambers Capacity: Availability of advocate capacity within the designated practice term.

Interested applicants may submit the online Pro Bono Intake Form. Our committee reviews applications weekly and communicates assessments within 3 to 5 business days.

Debt recovery options include sending Demand Letters, negotiation, mediation and litigation. We start with formal demand letters, which often times prompt payment or negotiation and payment plans. If unsuccessful, we can file a suit to peruse enforcement through asset attachment and garnishee orders.

Our offices are based in Nairobi, Kenya, with a strong network across East Africa. Through regional partnerships and international collaborations, we serve both local and foreign clients, including individuals, corporations, and government institutions.
