Mister Kingori, as he is reverently referred to in our Ashitiva universe, is our lead Court room Gladiator and a self-declared slayer of incompetent arguments in court. For George, the pen has proven mightier than the sword, one he wields successfully through skillful court pleadings while serving our clients in commercial litigation, regulatory disputes, international arbitration, and constitutional petitions as well as in contentious intellectual property disputes.
George is extremely nimble of mind and is fiercely respected in court for quick and witty rejoinders while on his feet. He is constantly looking for innovative ways to solve disputes and set new precedents for our clients and the profession. As the Head of our Dispute Resolution Department, he brings an inventive spirit to his practice, continually breaking new ground in terms of precedents. His legal innovation and contribution to jurisprudence was immortalized in the case of EPCO Builders Versus 312 Kenya Airways Employees where he put forth the law concerning the finality of an Arbitrators award. While it is true that Parliamentarians and Judges make the law, it is also true that a special breed of lawyers like Mister Kingori expand it.
It is widely known that George is an early riser but what is not widely known is that he is also an early sleeper. We have come to accept that it is not wise to count on him in our night plans. His internal system literally works like clockwork regardless of the venue or context, at exactly 8.00 p.m George can sleep on you even in the loudest night club, movie, church service or concert. However it is this particular internal clock which rises him constantly at 4.00 a.m and equips him with exceptional energy and perspective to solve our client’s challenges. Clients rave about him because George is efficient as he is effective. He enjoys leading his team as he does serving our clients.
