Introducing our new website

K.B.F. & Partners, Advocates, was founded in Lusaka in 1992. More than three decades later, we are pleased to welcome you to our new website at kbf.legal.

Who we are

We are a full-service Zambian law firm. Since 1992 we have practised without interruption, advising the companies, institutions and investors that shape Zambia’s economy.

Our approach is simple. Every matter has one named advocate responsible for it, from instruction to resolution. You are advised by someone who practises in that field, and you are given the advice you need, rather than the advice you want to hear.

Where we practise

Our headquarters are at No. 30 Bwinjimfumu Road, Rhodes Park, Lusaka. We also have offices in Livingstone and Choma, so you can reach us from three offices in Zambia.

[For the firm: add the Livingstone and Choma addresses here once they are confirmed, or delete this note.]

What we do

Our work is corporate, regulatory and contentious. It is organised into twelve practice areas:

• Corporate & Commercial
• Banking & Finance
• Mining & Natural Resources
• Energy & Infrastructure
• Competition & Regulatory
• Criminal Litigation & White-Collar Defence
• Environmental Law
• Dispute Resolution & Arbitration
• Employment & Labour
• Property & Conveyancing
• Intellectual Property & Media
• Agribusiness

Much of this work is built around the sectors that drive Zambia’s economy: mining, energy, financial services, manufacturing and agriculture.

Why a new website

Clients, counterparties and colleagues increasingly look for a firm online before they pick up the telephone. We want what they find to be clear and accurate.

Our new website gives a plain account of who we are, how we practise and where to find us. It also gives you a straightforward way to start a conversation with us, in confidence.

What you will find here

• The firm. Our history since 1992, the values we hold ourselves to, and how we work.
• Practice. Each of our twelve practice areas, with a summary of what it covers.
• Contact. Our offices, and an enquiry form for anyone who wishes to discuss a matter with us.

When you send us an enquiry, we first carry out a conflict check to confirm that we are free to act. Please do not send confidential information until that check is complete.

Insights, published

This post is the first in our Insights section. Here we will publish our reading of legal and regulatory change in Zambia, with attention to its commercial consequences.

Our posts will fall into three categories:

• Legal update. New legislation, regulations and decisions, and what they mean in practice.
• Commentary. Our view on developments that affect business in Zambia.
• Firm news. Announcements from the firm, such as this one.

We hope you will return to read them.

Speak to us

If you would like to discuss a matter, please use the enquiry form on our Contact page. A member of the firm will be in touch.

The content of this post is general information, not legal advice. No lawyer-client relationship is created by reading it or by submitting an enquiry.
