Real estate is one of the most significant investments a person or institution can make. Whether buying land, leasing commercial space, or developing housing projects, legal due diligence and proper documentation are critical. This is where Conveyancing and Transactional Lawyering comes in.

What is Conveyancing and Transactional Lawyering?
Conveyancing is the legal process of transferring ownership or interest in land or property from one party to another. Transactional lawyering involves drafting, negotiating, and executing legal documents that facilitate business or real estate deals.
Together, they form the backbone of secure and successful property dealings reducing risk, preventing disputes, and safeguarding investments.

Why It Matters
In Kenya and beyond, land and property transactions can be prone to fraud, disputes, or irregularities. Without proper legal guidance:
- Title deeds may be invalid or encumbered
