The Legal Engagement Letter is a crucial document used in Indonesian legal practice to formalize the attorney-client relationship. It serves as the foundational document that establishes the terms and conditions under which legal services will be provided. This document is required whenever a law firm or legal practitioner accepts a new client or matter, ensuring clarity in the scope of services, fee arrangements, and mutual obligations. The letter must comply with Indonesian regulations, particularly Law No. 18 of 2003 on Advocates and the Indonesian Advocates Code of Ethics. It typically includes detailed information about the engagement scope, team composition, fee structure, confidentiality obligations, and conflict of interest provisions. The document is essential for risk management and professional compliance in legal practice within Indonesia.
