What I'm looking for

I'm looking for an opportunity to build practical legal experience in research, drafting, contract review, civil or commercial matters, and litigation support while continuing to learn and develop professionally.

I've supported legal work at Ngeno Advocates and through court attachments at Kibera Law Courts and Milimani Law Courts, conducting legal research, preparing case summaries, reviewing contracts, and organizing court documentation.

I'm a Bachelor of Laws graduate from Riara University with practical exposure to criminal and civil proceedings, commercial legal issues, legal drafting, statutory interpretation, and case analysis. I bring careful document handling, clear legal writing, and a professional, ethical approach to client and case information.
