Key Takeaway

Immani Legal AI is a free AI legal assistant for Kenyan law. But did you know there's a difference between legal information and legal advice? We explain what that means in plain language and how Immani Legal AI helps you understand your rights.

What's the difference between legal information and legal advice?

In Kenya, the Constitution of Kenya 2010 (Article 10) requires that you have access to justice, which includes understanding your rights. The Small Claims Court Act (Section 3) also requires that you be informed about your rights and options when dealing with disputes. Immani Legal AI is a free AI legal assistant that provides legal information, not legal advice. This means that we give you facts about Kenyan law, but we don't tell you what to do in your specific situation.

Why is this important?

The Employment Act 2007 (Section 42) requires that employers provide employees with information about their rights and options. Similarly, the Consumer Protection Act (Section 14) requires that businesses provide consumers with clear information about their rights and options. Immani Legal AI helps you understand your rights by providing you with accurate and up-to-date information about Kenyan law.
