Advocates and tax advisers
Commercial, property, employment and tax work for Ugandan businesses. Every engagement begins with a written fee, agreed before any work is done.

Company formation, shareholder agreements, supply and distribution contracts, and the disputes that follow them.
Conveyancing, title searches, leases and the caveats that turn a simple purchase into a long one.
Contracts, handbooks, terminations and representation at the industrial court.
