With many marriages coming apart at the seams as can be seen these days in the cacophony of cable news and social media, “the Law of Matrimonial Property in East Africa’ has been written to guide the parties involved on the one hand to guard against or prevent disputes and on the other, once the disputes have arisen, to guide parties to walk through them with less friction. The foundation of Matrimonial property lies in the existence of a valid marriage. Laws on Marriages in East Africa have been scrutinized and where necessary critiqued. The book further distills the subject of matrimonial and family property into what appears to be simplistic yet complicated themes such as mortgaging, alienation, pledging, leasing, transfer of matrimonial property where the consent of a spouse is of paramount importance. Scrutiny is also made to aspects such as joint ownership and division of matrimonial property, property in form of gifts to spouses, prenuptial agreements, fraud, property rights of cohabiting couples, and how interests in matrimonial property can be secured, protected, and defended for couples in East Africa.
