Kenya’s lawyers have raised their fees by nearly 50 per cent, in spite of concerns over price-fixing raised by the Competition Authority.
Chief Justice Willy Mutunga has gazetted the Review of the Advocates Remuneration (Amendment) Order (ARO), 2014, which increased the fees charged by lawyers, effective mid last month.
