Kenya land courts offer speedy justice

I recently bought land on the outskirts of Nairobi with the intention of putting up rental units. Three months ago, some adjacent plot owners started saying that the boundaries of my plot had eaten into their parcels of land. We tried to settle the matter out of court, even inviting a surveyor, but we still have not agreed. I intend to move to court but I am worried about the delays in hearing and determining property matters in court. How can I ensure that my case is heard and determined faster and can I trust the Environment and Land Courts?
