Whether you're entering the Kenyan market, closing a transaction, or resolving a dispute — we're with you at every stage, led directly by a partner.
Acclivis Legal is a legal collaborative practice powered by Airo Associates Advocates LLP and Daniel Oduor Advocates within Kenya. It is a partner-led, full-service Kenyan legal network based in Nairobi, established to provide commercially minded legal counsel to local and international investors, businesses, entrepreneurs and private clients.
With two firms within the practice, our combined knowledge of Kenya's regulatory and land administration environment helps us to advise clients across the entire investment lifecycle — from market entry and business establishment to real estate acquisition, commercial transactions, regulatory compliance, dispute resolution and business expansion.
“Our objective is not simply to complete transactions, but to become trusted legal advisors supporting our clients as they invest, grow and succeed in Kenya.”
Our practice is organised around seven core sectors, giving clients one point of contact across the matters that matter most.
Legal due diligence, title verification, and end-to-end support across property transactions.
Commercial advisory spanning contracts, investment structuring and regulatory compliance.
Incorporation, statutory compliance and governance for growing businesses.
Structuring and compliance support for founders, accelerators and investors.
Protection, enforcement and commercialisation of brand and innovation assets.
No matter handed off to unsupervised juniors. Every engagement is led directly by a partner, ensuring accountability, continuity, and fast turnaround.
Plain-language advice, realistic timelines, and proactive risk-flagging at every stage of the engagement.
One legal practice covering entity structuring, land due diligence, IP protection, and dispute resolution — reducing the need for multiple advisers.
Hands-on experience with Kenyan institutions (Ministry of Lands, Business Registration Service, Kenya Revenue Authority) paired with an understanding of what foreign counsel and investors expect.
Every recommendation is guided by commercial realities, timelines and investment objectives.
Maintained as a core standard across all engagements, without exception.
The firm is led by three partners, with a cumulative legal practice experience of over a decade — providing the full breadth of counsel a foreign investor needs.
