Isaac β€”β€” post a picture of the man.
If you drive a mistubishi white pickup truck (I think), came to an apartment in Kyanja and bought roses 🌹 for someone and knocked and they didn't open for you. I have bad news for you. After you left, another guy came on a jaj in those short shorts, and they opened for him 😭😭

never study Law if you don't enjoy reading, because approximately 70% of your life in Law school will revolve around reading. πŸ“šβš–οΈ

Lawyers, you're allowed to raise your rates. You're also required to earn them. Do both.

What is she saying? Is the LJ telling us that the justice system is broken 😑
The Commercial Division of the High Court has called on insurance companies, intellectual property bodies and other stakeholders to designate representatives with authority to negotiate settlements ahead of its Mediation Settlement Fortnight, scheduled for November 16–30, 2026. Approximately 60 cases have been identified under the insurance and intellectual property clusters, with a further 200 matters earmarked for appellate mediation. Chairing a stakeholders’ meeting at the Commercial Court, the Head of Division, Lady Justice Anna Mugenyi, said effective participation would be critical to resolving disputes, reducing case backlog and improving access to commercial justice. The meeting brought together representatives of the insurance industry, intellectual property associations, regulatory institutions, legal practitioners and other sector players to prepare for the exercise. Lady Justice Mugenyi said the Division, which has a caseload of more than 6,000 cases, had adopted a cluster-based approach to mediation. Following earlier exercises covering banking, loans and credit, as well as trade, corporations and construction, the forthcoming fortnight will focus on insurance, intellectual property and appeals. Outstanding matters from previous clusters will also be considered. She highlighted mediation’s benefits, including lower costs, faster resolution, preservation of business relationships and greater control by parties over the outcome of their disputes. She added that settlements adopted by the court become enforceable as court orders. For the exercise to succeed, Lady Justice Mugenyi urged institutions to involve senior technical officers and departmental heads with sufficient authority to make settlement decisions, alongside their legal representatives. She also called on stakeholders to sensitise their members and encourage their lawyers to support mediation. Clarifying that court-appointed mediators do not charge mediation fees, the Judge cautioned lawyers against collecting money from clients on behalf of mediators. Lady Justice Mugenyi particularly encouraged the Uganda Revenue Authority and insurance sector institutions to participate, given their involvement in a significant number of the appeals identified for the exercise. Acknowledging the challenges of mediating disputes in which one party has already secured a judgment, she announced a specialised appellate mediation training and stakeholder roundtable scheduled for November 9, 2026. The engagement will explore practical approaches to appellate mediation and address stakeholders’ concerns. Insurance sector representatives welcomed the initiative as an additional avenue for resolving disputes efficiently and affordably. A representative of the insurance regulator noted that concerns over delayed compensation had affected public perceptions of the sector, and that mediation could help strengthen confidence in insurance services. Representatives of the intellectual property sector also pledged to mobilise their members, including musicians, copyright holders and collective rights management organisations. They noted that growing awareness of intellectual property rights was likely to increase demand for effective dispute resolution. The discussions highlighted the need for continued legal education and mediation training among sector practitioners. Lady Justice Mugenyi proposed collaboration with the Judicial Training Institute to build their knowledge and practical skills, while encouraging sector associations to help identify disputes suitable for early mediation.Stakeholders were invited to attend the November 9 roundtable and mobilise their members for the fortnight and the subsequent 60-day mediation period. An exit meeting will assess performance, identify challenges and inform future exercises. During the engagement, retired Justice Dr Henry Peter Adonyo received an award recognising him as the best overall mediator

No matter how much you prepare a witness, you cannot completely control what happens in the witness box. If a witness lacks basic understanding, composure or credibility, you are cooked. A good case can be damaged by a bad witness. Thats why witness preparation is very important

Being a good lawyer is not enough. You must also learn how to attract clients, build relationships, manage your practice and earn people's trust. Legal competence brings value, but business development keeps your practice growing.

Your LLM can't golf with a judge. Reputation, integrity and relationships still run the courthouse.
