FIRM PROFILE

Lai'Latif & Co. is Kenya's leading legal practice and consultancy firm. We have built a strong reputation in advancing and defending our clients' corporate, commercial, tax and transaction based needs.

About Us

Who We Are

Our legal practice is characterized by hands-on experience in nearly all major areas of the law, across all industries. We are also known for our unparalleled experience in the digitalising sector, from setting up digital business models to the developemnt of fintech and advising on the creation of NFTs. We are sought after by international and regional entities seeking to understand and do business in their “start-up nation.” We understand the Kenyan and African legal structure, culture and business environment. Our practice includes representing companies and investors in a variety of areas, including a wide range of complex corporate and investment transactions. From start-up financing and corporate partnering to public offerings and mergers, we help clients find the strategic paths that foster growth. We have a long-standing commitment to the Kenyan business community and have hosted our own meetings and networking events for clients and friends of the firm.  

A Focus on Results

Performance. Results Oriented. Diligence. However you define it, success in today’s global and digital age means addressing increasingly complex issues faster and more efficiently amid rapid change. Making the right decisions in this environment requires strategic counsel from an advisor who not only knows how laws are evolving in jurisdictions around the world, but also has a deep understanding of your particular industry. This is Lai'Latif & Co. We take an increasingly focused approach to working with clients in the corporate, commercial, financial, private equity, real estate, and digitalising sectors. It’s not just what we do. It’s why we do it — We strive to help you succeed, however you define success. You receive our best in every engagement. By helping you make the most of leveraging opportunities, protecting what’s important, and clearing obstacles in your way. At Lai'Latif & Co, we use law to enable our clients’ success. When we partner with our clients to practice law, we do so not just with integrity, but with ingenuity, agility and ambition. And in so doing, we are able to make a powerful, positive and lasting impact.  

Local Presence, Global Reach

We are positioned to create the blueprint for legal success and research services: we have grown internationally and in response to the increasing cross-border demands for legal, research and training services around public and private finance, digitalisation of the economy, SDGs and emerging digital business models by the biggest corporate and not-for-profit institutions in the world. 

Social Responsibility

 We recognise and take pride in our commitment to the community. We often provide our services pro bono, assisting non-profit organizations with questions of association, employment and structuring, and offering advice to low-income individuals with matters such as probate and tenant-landlord relationships. In 2020, we founded  زكاة تمكين المرأة (zakat tamkin almar'a - Islamic wealth tax for women empowerment) a funding project to support underprivileged women from no or low income households to start businesses and support their welfare.   


We ensure that our office is an inclusive place for persons of varying backgrounds and abilities. The firm also provides services at reduced rates or pro bono to social outreach organizations. We believe these activities are an important contribution to our society, and feel that they support and enhance the professional development of our team.
