Public Law, Infrastructure & Sustainability

Our Public Law, Infrastructure & Sustainability practice advises government entities, developers, and investors on the legal frameworks governing public projects, infrastructure development, and environmental sustainability. We provide guidance on public procurement, public-private partnerships (PPPs), and the regulatory approvals required for large-scale infrastructure projects, including energy, transport, water, and housing developments.

We advise clients on environmental and social impact assessments, compliance with the Environmental Management and Coordination Act, and engagement with the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA), helping projects meet sustainability and environmental standards from inception. Our team also supports clients in navigating administrative law matters, including judicial review of government decisions, licensing disputes, and engagement with regulatory and public bodies.

For investors and developers, we structure and negotiate PPP agreements, concession contracts, and financing arrangements for infrastructure projects, ensuring risk is appropriately allocated and projects are bankable. Whether advising government or private sector clients, we bring deep understanding of Kenya's public law and infrastructure landscape to deliver sustainable, compliant, and commercially sound outcomes.
