🟣𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤 𝐁𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐫𝐬: 𝐋𝐞𝐭’𝐬 𝐓𝐚𝐥𝐤 𝐀𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐇𝐨𝐧. 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐚 𝐊𝐚𝐫𝐮𝐚'𝐬 𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐞! If you’re a lawyer like me, your practice might have always been confined to your jurisdiction. I never thought about practicing law in the 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐉𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐒𝐲𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐦 outside Uganda; until I saw Hon. Martha Karua defy the odds! Today, January 7th, 2025, she has made history as the first non-Ugandan lawyer to represent clients in a Ugandan criminal trial.  But guess what? It wasn’t easy for her. She faced rejection at first. But she didn’t give up; she fought back, embraced the challenge. She pushed on until she got her 𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐞 that opened doors outside her geographical jurisdiction, Kenya. Now that is boundary-pushing. Just like Hon. Karua, we need to open our minds to the endless possibilities. Possibilities that Section 13 our Advocates Act and its equivalents in other jurisdictions can provide.  This is our chance to push our boundaries. So let’s ask ourselves: Why not us? Why not now? Let's make use of this lesson to stretch the limits of what we can do.  The legal world is vast, and now, so are our opportunities!   𝐈𝐟 𝐇𝐨𝐧. 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐚 𝐊𝐚𝐫𝐮𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐝𝐨 𝐢𝐭, 𝐰𝐡𝐲 𝐜𝐚𝐧'𝐭 𝐰𝐞?

🟣No Money, No Justice: How Can We Change This? 🟣"There can be no equal justice where the kind of trial a man gets depends on the money he has." These powerful words were spoken by Anthony Asiimwe, Vice President of the Uganda Law Society, yesterday as he welcomed newly enrolled advocates to the High Court of Uganda, Kampala. Many people can’t afford a good lawyer, which affects the fairness of their trial. Justice should be for everyone, not just those who can pay for it. Imagine facing a legal problem but not being able to afford help. You feel stuck and scared. That’s not fair. No one should feel helpless in front of the law. Assimwe encouraged the new advocates to consider offering pro bono services; free legal help to those who can’t afford it. Together, we can create a fairer system where everyone, rich or poor, has a chance at justice. What do you think? Should lawyers offer pro bono services to the needy? Share your thoughts in the comments and let’s start the conversation! PS: If I had a dollar for every time justice was delayed, I’d be able to hire my own judge. #Elevateyourprofessionalpresencewith_Amaka Zuria Nagadya #EqualJustice #DisputeResolution #ProBonoPower #AccessToJustice #FairnessMatters

🟣𝐉𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐔𝐧𝐛𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐝: 𝐇𝐨𝐧. 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐚 𝐊𝐚𝐫𝐮𝐚 𝐌𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐬 𝐇𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐔𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚! Imagine being a qualified lawyer, but told, "You don’t belong here." On December 6, 2024, that’s exactly what happened to Hon. Martha Karua, a Kenyan Lawyer. Denied her right to lead in a high-stakes Ugandan criminal trial. Her application was met with controversy and rejection. Her professionalism was questioned; her credentials dismissed on technicalities. The outrage? Legal communities in Kenya and Uganda were furious! The Law Society of Kenya threatened to suspend reciprocal admissions with Uganda. Today 6th January, 2025, justice struck back! The Uganda Law Council reversed its decision. Hon. Martha Karua now leads the team representing Dr. Kizza Besigye & Another before the General Court Martial. This is not just her win; it's a win for cross-border justice!

Once the journey of life comes to its inevitable end, the task of laying one’s dearly departed to rest becomes an essential and sacred responsibility. The right to bury loved ones, grounded in a rich tapestry of cultural, religious, social and legal traditions, is a fundamental aspect of human dignity and compassion. It is a right that transcends borders, beliefs, and backgrounds, underscoring a shared value across humanity. In the recently released Legal & Kenyan, #ourveryown Deputy Managing Partner John Mbaluto, FCIArb, Senior Associate Claire Mwangi and Associate Stacie Manani analyse the right to bury the deceased, exploring the legal dimensions through the precedent set by Courts in Kenya.
