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.
