• Internal Rules (ROI) of the Luxembourg Bar.

All these texts and ethical provisions can be freely consulted on the official portal of the Luxembourg Bar Association: www.barreau.lu.

03. Purely Informative Nature of the Content

The website aims to present the areas of practice of the KM Legal firm (Employment & Labor Law, Corporate Law & Business Law, Civil & Commercial Litigation & Arbitration, Immigration & International Mobility) and to disseminate legal news articles for general information purposes.

04. No Automatic Formation of Attorney-Client Relationship

Browsing the site, filling out a contact form, or sending an email does not, by itself, create a contractual attorney-client relationship between the sender and the KM Legal firm.

An attorney-client relationship is formally and validly established only from the moment the firm has formally accepted the mandate, conducted the required ethical checks (absence of conflict of interest and legal identification AML/KYC), and established a fee agreement or written engagement letter.

05. Professional Secrecy & Electronic Communications

All activities of the firm are covered by the strictest professional secrecy under Article 458 of the Luxembourg Penal Code.

However, the transmission of unencrypted data via open telecommunication networks carries inherent risks of technical interception beyond the firm's control. The user is invited not to communicate highly confidential or secret information via the standard contact form before agreeing with the firm on the use of a secure channel.

06. Fees & Financial Terms

The fees of the KM Legal firm are set with transparency and clarity, in accordance with the provisions of Article 39 of the law of August 10, 1991, on the legal profession and the practices of the Luxembourg Bar.

They are determined in agreement with the client based on the complexity of the case, the diligence to be deployed, the importance of the interests at stake, and the experience required. Depending on the nature of the case, fees may be set on an hourly rate basis, a predetermined flat fee, or accompanied by a success fee in strict compliance with bar rules (the pure quota litis agreement being prohibited).

A fee agreement is systematically proposed at the opening of the case to ensure perfect financial predictability.

07. Intellectual Property & Copyright

All content appearing on the site kmlegal.lu — including notably the brand, logos, graphic charter, texts, doctrinal articles, photographs, infographics, and site structure — is protected by intellectual property law in Luxembourg and internationally.

Any reproduction, representation, adaptation, distribution, or exploitation, partial or complete, of these elements without the prior express written authorization of Maître Katarzyna Martin is strictly prohibited and constitutes an act of infringement that may incur the civil and criminal liability of its author.

08. Limitation of Liability & External Links

The Firm employs all reasonable means to ensure the reliability, accuracy, and continuous updating of the published information. However, the Firm cannot be held responsible for material errors, unintentional omissions, or legislative and jurisprudential developments occurring after the articles are published online.

Hyperlinks pointing to third-party sites (official bodies, Legilux, etc.) are provided solely for practical informational purposes. The Firm exercises no control over these sites and disclaims any responsibility for their content.
