SKC Advocates LLP offers a comprehensive and commercially focused ADR practice serving clients in Kenya, the wider East African region, and internationally. Anchored in a strong understanding of Kenyan law and informed by global best practice, we assist clients in resolving complex disputes through efficient, predictable, and cost-effective mechanisms that minimise business disruption .
Our ADR services include Aarbitration, Mediation, Negotiation, and Early Dispute Resolution. We represent clients in both domestic and international arbitrations, with a deep understanding of proceedings under the rules of major arbitral institutions globally; across sectors such as construction and infrastructure, public–private partnerships, energy, and procurement. Our team also advises on drafting and reviewing arbitration agreements, contract management and dispute-avoidance strategies, and the enforcement or setting aside of arbitral awards before Kenyan courts. In mediation, including court-annexed processes, we provide strategic preparation, representation, and guidance on durable settlement structures, with experience in shareholder, employment, land, family business, and community disputes.
We further support clients through structured negotiations, pre-dispute advisory, expert determinations, and early neutral evaluation, enabling informed decision-making before disputes escalate. Our approach is pragmatic and client-centred, balancing legal, commercial, and reputational considerations. We emphasise streamlined processes, confidentiality, and ethical independence, with the objective of achieving timely resolutions that preserve relationships and protect long-term business interests.
