What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build my legal practice through roles involving legal research, drafting, case preparation, court processes, and access-to-justice work.

I've supported the Chief Magistrate Courts in Wakiso and Mukono through legal research, drafting rulings and judgments, case-file management, and court-record administration.

At Zahura and Co. Advocates, I researched statutory provisions and case law, drafted pleadings, submissions, and client correspondence, and assisted with case preparation.

Through Share Joy Group, I provide preliminary legal advice to women facing domestic abuse and participate in community legal-awareness workshops on land and family matters.
