About BT Advocates
A law firm in Nairobi and Kampala, built around practical advice, clear fees and keeping clients informed.
Who we are
BT Advocates is a firm of advocates practising in Kenya and Uganda, with offices in Nairobi and Kampala. We advise entrepreneurs, companies, organisations and families on the legal matters that shape their work and their lives, from setting up a company to buying land and planning an estate.
Because we work in both countries, clients who do business across the border can deal with one firm that understands the rules on each side: registering a company in Kenya and its branch in Uganda, for example, or managing property in both.
How we work
We believe good legal service is as much about communication as it is about law. That is why we agree fees before we start, explain matters in plain language, and give clients tools to follow their matters without having to call us for every update.
- A named advocate responsible for your matter
- A written fee quote before work begins
- Online tracking for business registrations in both countries
- A private client login for your documents
- We aim to reply to every message within one working day
Our values
Integrity. We give honest advice, including when the answer is not the one a client hoped for.
Diligence. We check the details, from land titles to company records, because that is where problems hide.
Confidentiality. Client information stays private, and documents are shared only with the people you authorise.
