Supporting practice · Legal Advisory
Legal advisory for transactions and the businesses behind them
Our legal team supports financing transactions from term sheet to completion, and advises companies on the corporate, property and regulatory matters that make them investable.
How it fits
Legal work that keeps a financing on track
A financing is only as sound as its documents. Alongside our financial structuring work, we handle transaction structuring, legal due diligence, negotiation and documentation, and issue sector-specific and transaction-specific legal opinions.
We draw on our knowledge of Kenya’s legal regimes and judicial processes to help clients manage legal risk with as little disruption to their business as possible.
