About the firm
PMA Advocates LLP is a Nairobi-based law firm established in 2019, providing high-quality, practical, and commercially focused legal counsel to businesses, investors, institutions, families, and individuals in Kenya, across Africa, and in international markets.
Our first principle
We combine technical legal expertise, commercial understanding, and strategic thinking to help our clients navigate complex legal and business environments — make informed decisions, manage risk, and pursue opportunities with confidence.
Our work
Our work spans commercial and corporate law, banking and finance, cross-border investments and transactions, corporate governance, private equity, real estate, intellectual property, employment, tax and regulatory matters, technology and fintech, healthcare and life sciences, international trade, litigation and dispute resolution, family law, wills and estates, and other specialist areas.
Cross-border
For clients operating across borders, we advise on cross-border investments, market entry, transactions, financing, and international expansion — connecting legal requirements with the realities of doing business across jurisdictions.
Advisory ecosystem
Today’s most important opportunities and challenges sit at the intersection of disciplines and sectors. Our evolving advisory ecosystem supports clients navigating healthcare, investment, technology, finance, governance, and sustainable growth.
But our value extends beyond the individual legal matter. We work with clients through business formation and growth, investment and expansion, transactions and restructuring, governance and compliance, disputes and resolution, succession and continuity.
Beyond the immediate
We look beyond the immediate question to understand where our clients are going and what they need to build, protect, and achieve along the way.
Whether we are advising a corporation, structuring a cross-border investment, supporting a healthcare venture, resolving a dispute, protecting intellectual property, guiding a family, or helping a business prepare for its next chapter, our commitment remains the same: counsel that is rigorous in law, commercially intelligent, and meaningful to the client’s wider objectives.
At the heart of the firm
QUALITY
We pursue excellence in our legal work, our thinking, and our service.
UNITY
We believe the strongest outcomes are built through partnership — with our clients, our team, and our wider ecosystem.
INTEGRITY
We act with honesty, responsibility, and respect for the trust placed in us.
Who we serve
Our clients include listed companies, private companies, close corporations, trusts, financial institutions, estate agencies, and private individuals — each served with the same commitment to understanding their business, their industry, and their markets, and giving advice that is commercially pragmatic.
We view feedback from clients as central to understanding their commercial and legal requirements. We regularly solicit feedback on our performance on transactions and cases as well as on our standards of client care.
