Who We Are
A national Kenyan firm with deep coastal roots.
Muthee & Partners LLP advises clients across the entirety of Kenya, with offices in Mombasa and Nairobi. Our practice covers the legal infrastructure of land and property — conveyancing, sectional titles, compulsory acquisition by the National Lands Commission, and the administration of estates that often span jurisdictions and generations.
We also litigate. Our advocates appear before the Magistrate’s Court, the High Court, the Environment and Land Court, and the Court of Appeal across the country.
- Read the statute. Every advice is grounded in primary authority.
- Write it down. Engagement letters, fee estimates, written progress notes.
- Prepare before you act. No filing or hearing without a full chronology.
- Tell the client what we see. Difficult news delivered candidly and early.
A small bench, a careful file, and the kind of attention that a property transaction or an estate deserves.
