Nyango Jimmy
@nyangojimmy
Advocate in Uganda specializing in litigation, contracts, land transactions, and dispute resolution.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Advocate focused on legal procedure, drafting, negotiation, client counseling, and alternative dispute resolution. I practice with a strong commitment to ethical conduct and meaningful access to justice.
In my current role as an Advocate/Associate, I represent clients in civil matters and handle the full range of litigation work, from drafting pleadings to producing settlement agreements and legal opinions. I also manage land transactions end-to-end—conducting searches, preparing agreements, supporting transfers, and handling mortgage perfection—while advising on family matters including divorce, succession, probate, letters of administration, and consent settlements.
Dispute resolution is a major strength of mine. I conduct mediation under the Judicature (Mediation) Rules and have settled 15+ disputes out of court, using clear negotiation and practical legal strategy to reach resolutions that work for clients.
Before this, I worked as a Legal Assistant, where I conducted legal research and drafted submissions for Senior Counsel, attended court with principals, and managed filing and service of court processes. I also supported incorporation of 20+ companies and NGO registrations at URSB, building a solid foundation across corporate advisory and company secretarial work alongside strong drafting and research habits.
