Structure with foresight & scale with security

Our Expertise

Start-up Stage

You get one chance to lay a strong foundation -build with structure strategy and foresight from day one

The right structure defines how you grow, how you’re taxed, and how you protect your future.

Whether it’s a Company (local or foreign), LLP, Public Benefit Organisation, or Trust, structure is everything.

Our Business Foundations service ensures you:

  • Choose a structure aligned with your model- strategic, tax-efficient, and legally sound.
  • Access pre-tax planning and compliance support that keeps your business secure, predictable, and audit-ready.

Because in business, foresight is always cheaper than hindsight.
We blend legal insight and tax strategy to help you start right, grow smart, and preserve wealth with confidence.

Growth Stage

Stay on-top of tax, regulation, governance and operations as your business grows

As your business expands, every decision carries weight – tax, regulatory, and operational.
Through our retained advisory model, we bring clarity and strategy before compliance becomes costly. We help you:

  • Structure growth transactions- Partnerships, acquisitions, and investor entries to ensure every deal is tax-efficient and enforceable.
  • Navigate shifting frameworks in tax, employment, and regulation so you remain protected and prepared.
  • Strengthen governance through shareholder agreements, resolutions, and board policies for sustainable growth.
  • Equip your team with toolkits, training, and implementation support that turn compliance into daily action.

Growth should never outpace structure. We help your business mature without costly legal or tax mistakes.

Private Wealth & Succession Advisory

Find the right wealth structures to ensure you and your loved ones are taken care of

Globally, over 70% of people and businesses lack a succession plan. In Kenya, the absence of a will often leads to long, painful court battles and family conflict.
We help you stay in control while building structures that protect your legacy. With our Family Governance Framework, your dependents engage with your wealth under your guidance, not through the courts or by chance. We create clear, enduring wealth structures supported by airtight legal systems for you.

 

We offer:

  • Wealth planning and structuring tools
  • Advice on viable tax exemptions
  • Estate planning
  • Cross-border asset movement

Dispute Resolution

When conflict arises, clarity is your greatest asset

 

We act for businesses, professionals, and families navigating complex disputes from shareholder disagreements and contract breaches to land, employment, and tax matters.

In partnership with Waithira M. & Co Advocates, our sister entity, we leverage multi-disciplinary expertise to deliver practical, timely, and favourable resolutions.

Tax Advisory

Tax isn't just compliance, it's strategy

Our strength lies in experience: combining legal mastery, negotiation skill and courtroom expertise. We’ve represented clients in landmark cases that shaped how tax is interpreted in Kenya, including:

The taxation of UN salaries | The non-application of royalties on software distribution | The tariff classification of premises and fertilisers.

When to call us:

  • Before you sign: For tax structuring and agreement support, anticipating impact before commitments.
  • After you sign: To scan agreements for hidden exposures before they escalate.
  • At any stage: For strategic tax planning and health checks.
  • Upon assessment: To evaluate the legality and strength of KRA claims.
  • During enforcement: To act swiftly against freezes, agency notices, or garnishees.
  • In defence: Before the Tax Appeals Tribunal, High Court, or Court of Appeal.
  • For capacity building: Through tax training and toolkits that help your team manage risks early.

We also collaborate with auditors and accountants to deliver integrated, defensible tax advice, ensuring every decision is informed and strategic.

Because the cost of a tax mistake is always higher than the cost of good advice.
