A Bit About Me
Thomas is a lawyer at the firm with perhaps the most stirring story about why he became a lawyer. When he was still a teenager, he was misdiagnosed twice in hospitals in his hometown which almost turned fatal. And the sense of injustice and medical negligence stayed with him and spurred him onto the path of the law. He then uncovered a world mired in medical negligence that changed his life forever and he vowed to become a lawyer to help victims affected by it.
Professional Expertise
Thomas started in the litigation department under the tutelage of Richard Kioko and has shifted to the commercial and conveyancing department before he makes a final decision on where his future lies. Thomas is all about seeing the future repercussions of both his actions while representing his clients and the opposition and he loves the thrill that comes with setting up a working strategy to win cases for his clients.
​
Thomas sees his future in litigation where he has been mentored by one of the best lawyers in the business, senior partner at the firm, Richard Kioko who has exposed him to the arena that is the courtroom. At MNM, Thomas has been given the chance to negotiate with clients, cross-examine witnesses, and even do follow-ups with the clients, rapidly accelerating his learning curve.
​
Thomas is convinced that if he hadn’t taken the path to being a lawyer, he would have ended up as a footballer professionally. He is an ardent fan of watching documentaries as a shortcut means of traveling the world and meeting great people from the comfort of his sofa and his enduring dream is to own an airplane in the future.
