Adoption & Family Law

Adoption in Kenya is governed by a modern piece of legislation called the Children Act.  At GMM, we offer to guide our clients through the entire adoption process including: evaluating & advising on eligibility; liaising with adoption societies, security services, regulatory agencies, foreign missions and all other relevant agencies; obtaining the necessary consents; initiating and navigating the Court process to obtain ad litem orders, interim orders & final orders; processing post adoption matters such as  registration of adoption orders, security bonds and periodical reports; appeals.
                                   

In addition to Adoption, GMM offers limited services in other aspects of family law to a select set of clients.   Issues frequently arise in families which require legal services to resolve efficiently and with minimized inconvenience.  While GMM's competence is to deal with the legal issues, we maintain empathy for the client who is facing difficulties in a relationship and the attendant financial stress.  The extra family law services we offer include guardianships, paternity, divorce, judicial separation, separation & maintenance, custody & visitation rights, post-decree modifications of orders, division of matrimonial property and appeals.  Our approach is to recommend mediation whenever that is a practical option before moving into litigation if that is the only solution in sight.
