Being named a Senior Counsel in Kenya is arguably the highest professional honour an advocate can achieve in their career.
Imagine it as reaching the peak of distinction, reserved for only the most dedicated and brilliant legal minds, a mark of professional excellence.
Senior Counsel title places you among an elite group often referred to as "legal eagles," a term meant to capture their sharpness and influence in the courtroom and beyond. In essence, it's Kenya's equivalent of the Queen's Counsel (QC) designation found in many Commonwealth countries, signifying a lawyer of profound experience and standing.
It's not just about prestige, though.
