FAQs
Common questions
- How do I register a company in Kenya?
Registration is completed through the Business Registration Service, and the structure you choose should follow your commercial plan rather than the reverse.
- What should a commercial contract contain?
Beyond price and scope, the terms that matter most are usually liability, termination, ownership and dispute resolution.
- What is the KNCA Virtual Law Office?
It is the firm's secure digital office where clients instruct KNC, follow matters and transactions, exchange documents, request services and see fees.
- Does submitting an enquiry create an advocate-client relationship?
No. Submitting an enquiry does not itself establish an advocate-client relationship; engagement follows conflict checks and formal acceptance.
