KenyaWhat I'm looking for
I am an Advocate of the High Court of Kenya with a strong focus on litigation, data protection, and commercial law. My journey in the legal field has equipped me with a proven track record of delivering strategic legal counsel and achieving favorable outcomes in complex, high-stakes matters. I have successfully represented clients in civil and commercial litigation, demonstrating my ability to navigate the intricacies of the legal system.
Throughout my career, I have honed my skills in legal research, drafting court pleadings, contracts, and legal opinions. My experience as a Trainee Advocate at Mwamuye Mzungu Solomon Advocates LLP allowed me to conduct in-depth legal research and prepare case strategies, directly informing the firm’s advisory and litigation strategies. I am committed to providing comprehensive legal support that meets the needs of my clients.
With a solid educational background, including a Postgraduate Diploma in Law from the Kenya School of Law and a Bachelor of Laws from Kenyatta University, I am well-prepared to tackle the challenges of the legal profession. I am eager to continue my professional development and contribute to a dynamic legal team.
