The Firm
A Kenyan law firm grounded in principle, driven by results, and committed to the long-term success of every client we serve.
Who We Are
Waithera Muiruri & Co Advocates is a leading Kenyan law firm headquartered in Nairobi. We are a boutique practice with a premium focus — delivering the quality and personalised attention of a specialised firm, backed by decades of combined legal experience.
Founded on the principles of integrity, excellence, and client partnership, our practice has grown to become a trusted name in commercial law, energy and mining, and dispute resolution across Kenya and East Africa.
We serve a client base that includes multinational corporations, local businesses, financial institutions, private equity funds, and individual high-net-worth clients who require reliable, commercially astute legal advice.
Our Journey
Waithera Muiruri & Co Advocates established in Nairobi with a focus on commercial and financial law.
Advising a growing roster of local and international corporate clients across Kenya and East Africa.
Extended advisory reach to Uganda, Tanzania, and Rwanda through associate networks.
Deepened practice in energy, oil & gas, and mining to serve Kenya's expanding extractive sector.
How We Work
We believe the best legal advice is clear, commercial, and delivered by people who genuinely understand your business.
Before we advise, we listen. We take time to understand your industry, your objectives, and the specific commercial context of your matter — so our advice is always grounded in your reality, not a generic legal template.
Unlike larger firms where junior associates carry the workload, every client at Waithera Muiruri & Co receives direct attention from our Managing Partner. This guarantees consistency, quality, and accountability at every stage.
We communicate in plain language. Legal jargon rarely helps a business decision. Our advice is structured to inform, not to overwhelm — so you can act with clarity and confidence.
We measure our success by your success. Our goal is not to close a file — it is to build a lasting advisory relationship that supports your growth and protects your interests over the long term.
