Lesley Buyabo Khwatenge is a pupil of our Nairobi Pupillage Programme 2026 cohort. Today, he shares with you his story.

"My time at Clyde & Co Nairobi as a pupil has been significantly fulfilling and a worthwhile experience.

As a pupil, I have been able to delve into various aspects of law including dispute resolution, insurance, corporate & commercial and have been able to navigate through them with the guidance of the distinguishable team at the firm.

The dispute resolution department has provided me with valuable exposure to litigation and alternative dispute resolution including legal research and drafting, client management, case strategy management and contract review on various matters.

Beyond technical legal work, a defining highlight of the experience has been contributing to and thriving within a highly collaborative and supportive professional environment. The strong working relationship within the firm continues to enhance both integration and performance, enabling continuous and meaningful professional development.

Overall, my time at Clyde & Co has provided a solid foundation in legal practice, deepening my exposure to diverse areas of law while strengthening practical skills in litigation and client service."
