Tobiko, Njoroge & Co. was established in Kenya in 1997 as Tobiko and Associates. In 2006, the practice merged with Bernard Njoroge & Co. Advocates to form Tobiko, Njoroge & Company Advocates, combining two practices' experience into one firm with the means to resolve legal issues, specialising in litigation as well as other areas of law.
Clients, from individuals to lending institutions and government bodies, need advocates who treat documentation with the same seriousness as advocacy. That premise still governs how the firm is run. Every matter is diligenced against the register or record before it is signed off, and every opinion is researched to the relevant statute, regulation or case authority before it is issued.
Our practice areas include Litigation, Civil Law, Arbitration, Land Law & Conveyancing, Labour Law and Bankruptcy Law, supported by advocates experienced in corporate law and judicial review. The practice extends further still, from banking law to regulatory compliance, set out in full on our Practice Areas page.
Rather than generalist coverage, clients are matched with advocates who work in the relevant register of law daily, so the advice reflects current registry practice and current case law, not last decade's precedent.
TOBIKO, NJOROGE & COMPANY has served several individual and corporate clients over the years. Our experience spans:
Statutory corporations and national government bodies, where public accountability meets private-sector pace.
Devolved government matters, from administrative action to disputes touching county mandates.
Commercial banks and mortgage finance institutions navigating lending, security and recovery.
Retirement benefit schemes where fiduciary duty and long-term member interest both matter.
International and regional carriers, and the authorities that keep Kenya's airspace and airports running.
Industrial groups and cement manufacturers, where large-scale operations meet regulatory complexity.
Operators navigating a fast-moving regulatory and commercial landscape.
Regulatory bodies and trust funds financing and governing Kenya's water sector.
Several group ranches and land adjudication sections across Kajiado, Narok and Laikipia counties.
No opinion leaves the firm without its underlying statute, regulation or case citation checked against the primary source.
Clients receive advice in language they can act on; the legal reasoning is available, but never mandatory reading.
Client instructions, files and correspondence are treated as privileged from the first meeting, whether or not a retainer follows.
Neither the firm, nor any of its members or staff, has ever been the subject of a complaint, to court, the Law Society of Kenya, the Advocates Complaints' Commission or any other organ, for professional misconduct or want of ethics and integrity.
The firm has not had to deal with a dispute with any of its clients. In the event of one arising, we would prefer recourse to negotiation, mediation and arbitration; litigation would be the last resort, not the first.
