Established in 2007, the law Firm is gaining momentum in a rapidly changing and expanding social and economic environment of the Democratic Republic of Congo. 

Many entrepreneurs and investors have understood what this young republic has to offer them in a cross-cultural encounter, which is growing, open to foreign capital, and have decided to invest therein. Rightly so! 

The DRC is a country with a continental dimension, offering a wide range of possible energy solutions, minerals, oil and gas, electricity, among others. Its central location also allows entrepreneurs, investors to have a look at the world and other continents where their business is already thriving, and where their clients expect support from them.

As far as Étude Kabinda’s members and assistants are concerned, they have fully grasped the changes in the DRC legal world. They have understood what was at stake for their clients: having to make important and crucial decisions for their company, their staff and themselves, in a DRC undergoing legislative and regulatory acceleration imposed by these political and economic changes. Laws are becoming more complex, numerous, difficult to follow, and legal language difficult to understand.

The teeming legal landscape of the DRC opens up many pitfalls, favoured by incessant lawmaking processes, for those who would like – in order to find help and advice – to venture into it by various means, including the Internet. We know that companies are not necessarily equipped to respond to these developments.

As a result of these reforms and changes, Étude Kabinda’s lawyers have made their strength, anxious to preserve their clients’ interests, but also to assist them throughout their setting up process until they reach a secure positioning.

Trained in DRC law, it is first and foremost a local expertise that the firm’s members and assistants offer their clients, which can be transmuted internationally, thanks to an openness to the world through digital technology and networks of renowned lawyers, enabling their clients to operate in a totally controlled legal universe. Such is one of our greatest assets.

Étude Kabinda is made up of more than a dozen lawyers and their assistants, all of whom have received the most advanced training, and specialise in each area of expertise offered by the law firm. They are accomplished women and men: PhD students, teachers, members of bars and editors. The highly successful online Larcier Codes of the Democratic Republic of Congo are drafted and regularly updated by our lawyers. It is the only comprehensive collection of legal and regulatory texts in force in a DRC that is a member of the Organisation for the Harmonisation of Business Law in Africa (OHADA). It is published by De Boeck and Larcier, and is another of our major assets to assist you.

This is how your expert law firm Étude Kabinda – Avocats DRC presents itself. Involved, working in synergy with you, and for you, listening. We are a local law firm and, through a common language, we assist you in your business, at the whim of events, in a safe, solid and controlled legal environment, with full confidence.
