Yes. We handle company registration through the Business Registration Service (BRS), including name search and reservation, incorporation, preparation of constitutional documents, and issuance of the Certificate of Incorporation. We can complete standard registrations in 3–5 working days.

A shareholders' agreement is a private contract between company shareholders that governs their rights, obligations, and the management of the company. It is strongly recommended for any company with multiple shareholders. It protects all parties and prevents disputes.

Kenya issues several categories of work permits. The most common for employed foreigners is the Class G Permit. The Class M Permit is for foreign investors. A Special Pass is used for short-term assignments. The category depends on your employment and investment situation — contact us for a free assessment.

Standard work permit processing typically takes 3–6 months through the Department of Immigration Services. We assist with preparing a strong application file to minimize delays. Special Passes (short-term) can be issued more quickly — sometimes within weeks.

A title search verifies the legal ownership of a property and checks for any encumbrances (e.g., charges, caveats, court orders) that could affect your purchase. It is an essential step before buying any property in Kenya. We conduct comprehensive title searches at the Ministry of Lands.

A straightforward property transfer in Kenya typically takes 60–90 days after both parties sign the sale agreement — depending on title registration backlogs, Land Control Board approvals (for agricultural land), and any complications with the title. We work efficiently to minimize delays.

Under the Matrimonial Causes Act and the Marriage Act, divorce in Kenya can be granted on grounds including irretrievable breakdown of marriage (which encompasses adultery, cruelty, desertion, and separation). The process is handled by the Family Division of the High Court or Resident Magistrate's Court.

Kenya follows the principle of fair distribution of matrimonial property. The Matrimonial Property Act 2013 governs how property acquired during marriage is divided — generally based on contributions (financial and non-financial). Courts exercise discretion to achieve a just outcome.
