Contract Dispute Lawyers in Kenya
Contracts are the foundation of commercial relationships, and when one party fails to perform its obligations, the consequences can be severe. Contract disputes in Kenya are governed by the Law of Contract Act and common law principles, covering issues such as breach, misrepresentation, frustration, termination, and remedies including damages, specific performance, and injunctions.
LHK Advocates represents both claimants and defendants in contract disputes. For claimants, we pursue the full range of remedies available for breach, including compensatory damages, lost profits, and specific performance. For defendants, we assess whether the alleged breach occurred, raise available defences, and challenge inflated claims.
Our experience spans disputes arising from all types of contracts including supply agreements, service contracts, construction contracts, distribution agreements, franchise agreements, and settlement agreements. We understand the commercial context in which these disputes arise and provide advice that is both legally sound and commercially practical.
