Statute overview

About this statute

This excerpt is the heading and title of the law on advocacy; it does not state an operative rule here. This article says the legal profession is free and independent, provides legal services to people and entities, and empowers the Kosovo Bar Association to issue normative acts to regulate and organize the profession. Article 2 says what an attorney’s legal services include, allows substitution by a trainee lawyer under written authorization and supervision, and bans several outside or competing activities. The Bar Association may start court proceedings when unauthorized people provide legal aid, unless the law says otherwise. The right to practice as a lawyer is obtained by registering in the register of lawyers.
