Personal bio
I am a Litigation and Arbitration Associate at ALN Uganda (MMAKS Advocates), a leading law firm in Uganda. My focus areas of practice are corporate and commercial litigation and arbitration. I have appeared and assisted in a number of groundbreaking cases in the fields of commercial arbitration, banking and finance, contractual disputes, and construction law. I previously worked as a Consultant for the East Africa Law Society, East Africa's regional bar association, and the Business Law Clinic at Makerere University. While studying for the Bar in Uganda, I clerked for a Justice of the Uganda Supreme Court and carried out research as an Associate at the African Development Law Institute. I hold an LL.B (Hons) degree from Makerere University and a First-Class Post-Graduate Diploma in Legal Practice from the Law Development Centre where I was the recipient of the Attorney General’s Award. Some of the leading cases in which I have appeared/assisted in include the string of litigation involving the Industrial Development Corporation of South Africa and AYA Investments (U) Ltd by which the Uganda Courts have affirmed that Uganda is an arbitration friendly jurisdiciton with limited court intervention in arbitration matters.
