Background in networking and cybersecurity. Built this platform to make Maltese law accessible to residents, expats and businesses — in plain English and Maltese — without needing a law degree or a lawyer's fee to understand your basic rights. Mario is not a lawyer. This platform provides general legal information only.
Malta has a complex bilingual legal system — laws written in Maltese and English, a mix of Napoleonic and common law traditions, and an official statute database (legislation.mt) that is comprehensive but difficult to navigate for non-lawyers. Laws of Malta bridges that gap: every law is summarised in plain language, linked directly to its official source, and explained in the context of how it affects everyday life.
Every law on this platform is cross-referenced against the official text on legislation.mt — the Government of Malta's official statute database. Court case summaries are sourced from published judgments on eCourts Malta (ecourts.gov.mt). All content carries a last-verified date. If you spot an error or outdated information, please report it — we treat accuracy as an ongoing responsibility, not a one-time task.
Laws of Malta provides general legal information only. Nothing on this platform constitutes legal advice and no lawyer-client relationship is created by using it. For advice specific to your situation, always consult a warranted Maltese advocate. The AI assistant is a general-purpose tool and should not be relied upon for legal decisions.
