Terms & Conditions of Use
Last updated: 28 September 2026
By using mbn-law.co.ke (the “website”), you agree to these conditions. The website is operated by Mwaura Benedict Njuguna & Company Advocates (“MBN Law“, “we”, “us”), a law firm practising in Kenya from offices in Nairobi, Nakuru and Kitengela (Kajiado). If you do not agree, please do not use the website.
1. Legal disclaimer
All content on this website, including our practice area descriptions, FAQs and blog articles, is general information about the law in Kenya. It is provided for information only. It is not legal advice, and it is not a substitute for advice from an advocate who has reviewed the facts and documents of your specific matter. The law changes, and its application depends on your circumstances. Please do not act, or decide not to act, on anything you read on this website without first seeking professional legal advice.
Our advocates are admitted to practise in Kenya and are trained to advise on, and represent clients in, matters of litigation, property and trusts, commercial and corporate law, and arbitration and other dispute resolution. Their advice is given only after a proper assessment of your matter. Anything you do based on general information, such as signing documents, making payments, or starting or responding to a claim without that assessment, is done at your own risk.
2. No advocate-client relationship from using the website
Visiting this website, reading our content, sending an enquiry, booking an appointment, or messaging us on WhatsApp does not create an advocate-client relationship. That relationship begins only when we have confirmed in writing that we will act for you, on terms we have agreed with you, including our scope of work and fees. Until then, please do not send us confidential or time-sensitive information beyond what is needed to describe your enquiry.
3. How enquiries, consultations and appointments work
- Enquiries. You can contact us through our online form (case evaluation request, legal advice enquiry, appointment scheduling, or reporting a legal issue), by phone, by email or on WhatsApp. An enquiry is a request for us to get in touch. It is not a request that we take on your matter, and we are not obliged to reply or to accept instructions.
- Conflict checks. Before we can accept instructions, we check whether acting for you would conflict with our duties to another client. We may need to ask for the names of the parties involved. We may decline a matter where a conflict exists or for any other proper reason.
- Appointments. Appointments booked through the website are requests until we confirm the date, time and branch with you. Our offices are open Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm. Consultations may be charged. We will tell you before the consultation if a fee applies.
- Taking instructions. If we agree to act, we will confirm the terms in writing and may ask for identification and other documents as required by law. Any advice we give during a consultation is based only on the facts and documents you have given us at that time.
4. Confidentiality of your communications
We treat client information as confidential and privileged, as the law and our professional duties require. Email, website forms and messaging apps such as WhatsApp are not completely secure. By using them to contact us you accept that risk. If your matter is particularly sensitive, please tell us and we will agree a more secure way of communicating. Please read our Privacy Policy to see how we handle your personal data.
5. Urgent matters and time limits
The website is not monitored around the clock, and we do not respond to enquiries instantly. If your matter is urgent, such as an arrest, an eviction, or a court date or deadline approaching, please call one of our offices directly. In an emergency, contact the police or the relevant authorities. Many legal claims are subject to strict time limits, so please seek advice promptly and do not wait for a reply from a website enquiry.
6. Property listings and third-party services
MBN Law works with Urban Core Limited on property matters, and our website links to their site (urbancore.co.ke). Urban Core is a separate business. We do not control its content, listings or prices, and we are not responsible for them. Where you use our conveyancing services for a property transaction, the terms of our engagement with you apply. Please carry out your own due diligence on any property before committing to a purchase. The same applies to any other external links on our website.
7. Our content and your use of the website
- The website’s text, logo, images and design belong to MBN Law or our licensors. You may view and print pages for your own personal, non-commercial use, but you may not copy, republish or sell them without our written permission.
- You agree not to misuse the website, including by attempting to gain unauthorised access, introducing malicious code, or submitting false, misleading or unlawful information through our forms or comments.
- Testimonials and descriptions of past results on this website are shared with client consent and do not guarantee a similar outcome in your matter. Every case depends on its own facts.
8. Limitation of liability
We take reasonable care to keep the website accurate and up to date, but we make no promise that it is complete, current or free from errors, or that it will always be available. To the extent the law allows, MBN Law is not liable for any loss arising from your reliance on the website’s content or from your use of, or inability to use, the website. Nothing in these conditions excludes liability that cannot be excluded by law, including our professional obligations to clients whom we act for.
9. Governing law
These conditions are governed by the laws of Kenya. Any dispute about the website or these conditions is subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of Kenya.
10. Changes and contact
We may update these conditions from time to time. The current version is always on this page, with its date at the top. For questions, contact us at info@mbn-law.co.ke or on 0727 475 682.
