What makes these different

Useful first. Legally careful second. Commercially relevant throughout.

Each tool will answer a real question in plain language, show the assumptions behind the result and point users to the next sensible step where professional advice may be needed.

Kenya-specific

Built around Kenyan law, official schedules, regulatory requirements and common local transaction practices rather than generic global calculators.

Transparent assumptions

Every calculator will state what it includes, what it excludes and which inputs can materially change the result.

A path to action

Results will connect users to relevant guides, checklists and Njau & Associates services without turning the tool into a sales form.

What comes next

Seven tools are live. Two specialist compliance pathways are next.

The core employment, property, stamp-duty, fees and succession tools are now live. The next releases will focus on business compliance and digital-asset regulation.

ODPC Compliance Checker

A guided privacy-compliance pathway covering registration, controller/processor status, notices, agreements, DPIAs and practical compliance gaps.

Digital Asset Regulatory Pathway Checker

A structured route through virtual-asset, tokenisation, stablecoin and digital-asset activities to identify the regulatory questions and likely licensing path.

Continuous legal updates

Rates, statutory references, official fees and guidance across all live tools will remain date-stamped and updated as official requirements change.

Need an answer that depends on your specific facts?

The tools are a starting point. For a transaction, dispute, regulatory question or sensitive personal matter, speak with an advocate before relying on an estimate or making a legal decision.

Frequently asked questions

About Njau Legal Tools

Are the Njau Legal Tools free to use?

Yes. The public tools are intended to provide a practical starting point for understanding common Kenyan legal costs, processes and questions.

Do the calculators provide legal advice?

No. Calculator results and checklists are general information only. They do not replace advice on the facts of a particular matter and do not create an advocate-client relationship.

Will calculator results always be exact?

No. Some legal costs and entitlements depend on the facts, current statutory rates, court or registry charges, contractual terms and professional fees. Results should be treated as estimates unless expressly stated otherwise.

Will the tools be updated when Kenyan law changes?

The tools are designed to be maintained as laws, regulations, official schedules and administrative requirements change. You should still confirm the current position before acting on a result.

The information and tools on this website are general in nature, are not legal advice, and do not create an advocate-client relationship. Estimates may not reflect every fact, exemption, statutory charge, disbursement, contractual term or later change in law. Do not send confidential case information through a calculator unless the tool expressly states how that information will be handled. Please contact Njau & Associates Advocates for advice on your circumstances.
