WANGU KARIUKI & KARIUKI ADVOCATES: OUR FOUNDING STORY

Beneath the radiant orange and lavender hues of a Kenyan sunset over Mt. Kenya, an extraordinary vision was born. Amidst the wildlife of Mt. Kenya National Park, ostriches ran freely and eagles soared high, while a spacecraft traced a vapor trail in the distant sky.

On a forest hotel terrace, Bishop Dr. Lawrence Kariuki Muraya and his daughter, Wangu Kariuki, absorbed this awe-inspiring scene. It was here, in this moment of silent wonder, that the Bishop shared a profound insight with Wangu, who had just finished high school and was eager to start college. He spoke of the endless potential beyond the ordinary, likening legal professionals to astronauts exploring new realms. He inspired Wangu to not just practice law but to revolutionize it.

This conversation sparked a defining epiphany for Wangu. Her mission became to create a 'legal spacecraft' – a law firm that would elevate clients beyond conventional legal challenges, protecting them from the 'rains of litigation' and navigating the complexities of law with unparalleled expertise.

In 2019, after years of dedication, this vision took flight as Wangu Kariuki & Kariuki Advocates. Our firm has since been a beacon, guiding clients through legal disputes and elevating businesses to realms of minimal conflict and legal burden.

Join us at Wangu Kariuki & Kariuki Advocates, where we don't just practice law – we take you and your business to unprecedented heights.

Debt Recovery & Collection

With Wangu Kariuki & Kariuki Advocates, you're assured by far faster debt collections than otherwise. We are well equipped to assist our Clients to collect bad debts with professionalism, integrity, and sensitivity to ensure that the commercial relationship between our Clients and debtors is maintained.

We make every effort to trace debtors and identify their assets as well as establish their financial standing. This information also ensures that “hopeless” debts are identified early and not pursued thus saving the client legal costs that may be incurred in the Court process.

We've noted that quite a number of companies use debt collection agencies, it has been our experience that debtors effectively respond to lawyers when faced with the imminent threat of litigation, insolvency or liquidation. A demand letter from a law firm has a more reactionary and positive effect than one from debt collection agency.
