"When we sat down to found what became KAA Advocates, we made one decision: we shall emphasize only quality. We shall not go anywhere chasing work. We shall just sit here, produce quality work, and our reputation will give us work. And indeed it did. We got Centenary Bank when it was on the verge of collapse. We handled it, blew it back to life. We got Tropical Bank. We designed the Condominium Law. We were the top taxpayer for service companies for several years.
We had a dream to attract the best young people. These days we don't even advertise. We go to the law centre, ask who got the highest marks, and say okay, you can have a place at KAA. If you don't go through KAA now, you have not consulted in Uganda."

The High Court Civil Division has ordered @UCUniversity@uculaw to pay its former Guild President Samantha Mwesigye Ugx.100m in general damages for failing to transfer her first year law credits obtained from @KingsCollegeLon and irratiinally blocking her graduation. The verbal communication by the Vice Chancellor and the Dean School of law has been quashed. What a case in advancing the rights of students!!. Thanks to @KAAdvocates and my Arsenal friend @FERDINANDIUS for this win.
AG Mayanja has endorsed appointment of appointing lawyers as temporary judges as per Article 142(2) of the Constitution. @elisonk has been a strong advocate of this measure to curb case backlog in the Judiciary
Dear,
Col. @ChrisOMagezi,
I have seen your recruitment advert. Many young lawyers have expressed concern that the requirement for 5 years experience excludes recent graduates who have just completed their studies at LDC.
Yet Quite a number of them are eager to serve.
2026 owes me my big girl career. One that comes with financial stability, career progression, occasional travel, a good work environment and great colleagues
In today’s @DailyMonitor .
… The Law Council, @MoJCA_UG , @KiryowaKk@JudiciaryUG , @ug_lawsociety and all other relevant relevant stakeholders ought to come together now to design a clear, transparent, and time bound process for enrolment…
We must do better, we can do better to save the careers of young Lawyers.
