Combination positions the world’s largest law firm to meet client needs in Africa<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dentons, the world’s largest law firm, has launched its previously announced combination with Hamilton, Harrison & Mathews (HH&M), one of the largest firms in Kenya.<\/p>\n

The combination means that HH&M – which dates back to 1902, making it one of the oldest firms in Africa — is now part of Dentons Africa. It will enable Dentons to offer clients access to high-quality legal services in Kenya, East Africa and beyond.<\/p>\n

The launch of the combination in Kenya follows a proposed combination announced earlier this year in Mauritius.<\/p>\n

“Clients in East Africa, and clients wanting to do business there, will benefit from high-quality legal service on a truly global scale that only Dentons can offer,”<\/em> said\u00a0Joe Andrew<\/a><\/strong>, Global Chairman of Dentons. “Our clients have access to the deep local knowledge that is provided by lawyers who are both in and of the communities they serve.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

HH&M has been associated with Dentons for more than 10 years and is the third-largest firm in Kenya by partner headcount. The HH&M team has experience across each of Dentons’ key practice areas matched to Africa\u2019s growth areas and opportunities.<\/p>\n

It offers expertise in Banking and Finance, Corporate, Disputes, Real Estate, and Technology, Media & Telecommunications, and has consistently been rated as one of the top-tier firms in Kenya by clients and international legal directories. Chambers Global ranks it Band One in the Dispute Resolution, and Employment Sectors, and Band Two in the Corporate\/Commercial and Banking & Finance and Employment sectors.<\/p>\n

East Africa is home to 280 million citizens and has a combined GDP of US$225 billion.<\/p>\n

“Our expansion in Kenya with one of the largest firms there will help us build on our East Africa presence, as well as our pan-Africa presence,”<\/em> said\u00a0Noor Kapdi<\/a><\/strong>, CEO of Dentons\u2019 Africa region and Managing Partner of Dentons South Africa.<\/p>\n

Dentons traces its presence in Africa to the establishment of a Cairo, Egypt, office in 1964. It also has offices in Casablanca, Morocco, and Johannesburg and Cape Town, South Africa.<\/p>\n

The combination with HH&M gives Dentons’ clients access to the experience and talents of lawyers working in 76 countries, and uniquely position Dentons to provide high-quality legal services to clients around the world.<\/p>\n

“This combination with a truly high-quality Kenya firm gives us an even stronger presence in East Africa and will further allow Dentons to pursue its strategy to become a pan-African law firm that reaches more of Africa than its competitors,”<\/em> said\u00a0Elliott Portnoy<\/a><\/strong>, Global CEO of Dentons.<\/p>\n
