The lawyer who bet his career on a leap of faith - Business Daily

Mahesh Acharya, managing partner of ENS in Kenya, left Kaplan & Stratton with three other partners to open ENS's Kenya office, bringing 90% of his team and clients with him. The fifth and last of five brothers, he grew up in Eldoret and was rejected by 20 law firms before securing pupillage. Today, his firm advises clients in financial services, M&A, and cross-border transactions.
