Ssempebwa’s advice is sought on Uganda’s constitutional matters and on regional mandates too.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= General Business Law - Uganda )〕 Over the years, the firm has advised governments, non-governmental organizations, multinationals and other business entities. One of the noteworthy big deals saw the firm give a hand to Warid Telecom Uganda on its $500 million merger with Bharti Airtel in 2013.〔 The firm played a pivotal role in Uganda’s U-turn on the death penalty in 2007 by helping to prove to the Constitutional Court that the death penalty for murder and other offences was unconstitutional.〔 Katende Ssempebwa had earlier on played a fundamental role in erasing all Sub sections of the constitution of the Republic of Uganda that had in 1966 abolished traditional institutions from the country. Simultaneously, the firm also managed to come up with relevant laws that enabled the return of all the properties that had been forcefully confiscated from Buganda and other Kingdoms by former Ugandan regimes. These constitutional amendments eventually led to the coronation of Kabaka Ronald Muwenda Mutebi II and other traditional rulers in 1993.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= John W.
