How we take an instruction

We take a full account, obtain the charge sheet and statements where available, and prepare for bail or bond with sureties and residence details in order. At trial we test the prosecution case and advise on plea only after you understand the options.

Contact the Nairobi or Malaba office as soon as an arrest or summons is known.
