FREEDOM OF ADVOCATE

The lawyer practices his profession freely, self-determined and unregulated, as far as law or professional regulations do not oblige him.

The freedom rights of the lawyer ensure the participation of the citizen in the law. Its activity serves the realization of the rule of law.

As an independent consultant and representative in all legal matters, the lawyer has to protect his clients from loss of rights, legal, conflict-avoidance and arbitrariness, to protect against wrong decisions by courts and authorities and to secure against unconstitutional interference and state power overrun.
