The new law on advocacy that was adopted December 14, 2004 came
into force January 13, 2005. The novelty of the law was that the
existing unions of lawyers had to be liquidated and a united chamber
created instead. Both previous and present models have advantages
and disadvantages.
We addressed 100 citizens with the following question: “Should
different lawyer unions or united chamber of lawyers function?”
The majority supported the idea of formation a united chamber to
preserve solidarity and avoid discrepancies and procrastinations. As
one of the respondents said, “we are not Europe, we should have one
body to reduce corruption”. Another man held the opinion that there
should be made unions to create the atmosphere of competition. 33%
of those surveyed adhered to the same opinion. 17% found difficulty
in answering. “We have no job to buy bread. Should we think about
their chambers”, one of them said.
