The Law Society of Kenya (LSK) is the professional body for lawyers in Kenya. It is mandated to advise and assist members of the legal profession, the government, and the larger public in all matters relating to the administration of justice in Kenya. The LSK has a long history, dating back to the colonial era, and has played a vital role in the development of the Kenyan legal system.

The LSK is governed by a Council, which is elected by the members of the Society. The Council is responsible for the overall management of the Society, including the appointment of the President. The President of the LSK is the head of the Society and is responsible for representing the interests of the legal profession in Kenya.
