SINCE 2006

Synergy through diversity

WKH Inc. combines a unique synergy of expertise, experience, and skills, offering clients a comprehensive range of legal services built on sound business practices and ethics, always centred around the client’s needs and expectations.

In September 2006, the partners of Dr Weder, Kruger & Hartmann (est. 1949) joined with the directors of Kauta, Basson & Kamuhanga Inc. (est. 2000) to form Dr Weder, Kauta & Hoveka Incorporated, setting a precedent in Namibia and reflecting the firm’s commitment to national transformation. In August 2025, the firm rebranded as Dr Weder, Kruger & Haikali Incorporated, adopting the modern name “WKH” to mark a new era of growth and purpose.

By uniting the strengths and heritage of these legacy firms, WKH Inc. has expanded its capacity – not only through a talented and diverse team, but also across broader fields of expertise, deeper experience, and modern infrastructure. The result is a leading practice with a singular focus: delivering service excellence to an ever-growing and diverse client base.

Service excellence
through innovation

At WKH Inc., enabling a diversity of talents, expertise, genders, languages and cultures at all levels and areas of the business is only the first step to ensuring effective service delivery.

Guided by the philosophy “to be dynamic, you must change”, every aspect of the business is geared towards creating a premium client environment. To this end, the headquarters in Jan Jonker Road, Windhoek, combines innovative thinking with state-of-the-art technology. A modern, split-level office, the downstairs area is aptly called the factory floor, creating a space for all processing and documentation to take place uninterrupted. The top floor has been designed with the client’s needs and comfort in mind, with private consultation rooms, a fully equipped boardroom, and a full-service cafeteria.

Technology forms the backbone of all business conducted at WKH Inc. In addition to ensuring all clients have access to the Internet through a wireless network; each director has a personal laptop that makes use of the latest software, such as LawNet. This ensures all directors are in constant and direct access with clients and colleagues alike, ensuring a streamlined communication process that eliminates unnecessary delays.

HUMAN CAPITAL

WKH Inc. believes that employees are a company’s most valuable asset. As such, the firm continues to invest in the well-being of its people, from supporting the communities in which they live and creating a working environment that is of the highest standard, to investing in their further education and enrichment.

In terms of its employment practices, WKH Inc. strives to create opportunities for previously disadvantaged individuals through its commitment to enforcing the principles and practices surrounding Affirmative Action.

Corporate Social Investment

In a country where the majority of Namibian citizens face major economic and social challenges, WKH Inc. believes that legal firms and corporations have a fundamental responsibility to assist individuals and communities to make a meaningful contribution to society.

Rather than simply donate money, the firm’s Corporate Social Investment programme aims to make effective use of both its financial and human capital resources, drawing on the wealth of skills, passion and expertise inherent in its rich staff complement.

WKH Inc. believes that education serves as the foundation on which to build an inclusive and sustainable economy. With tertiary education forming the basis of the legal profession, WKH Inc. provides scholarships and financial assistance, through the JP Karuaihe Trust, to law students from previously disadvantaged backgrounds or with financial difficulties.

In addition to funding students at the tertiary level, WKH Inc. annually funds various organised institutions through Imgao Dei. To avoid prolixity the details are reflected elsewhere.
