YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 27, ARMENPRESS: The conclusive oral round of the
sixth state scientific conference for students entitled "Advocacy:
the Present State and Development Prospects" was held today in the
central office of the Armenian Young Bar Association.
The association’s Chairman Karen Zadoyan said that the goal of the
conference is to increase the level of the students’ knowledge in the
sphere of law, to ensure their participation in the consolidation of
the law institute. He is sure that the most important precondition for
a lawyer is first of all independence, which enables to act without
any constraint.
The institute of law in our country needs a self-cleaning. In my
opinion it must be cleaned by 70-80 percent", K. Zadoyan said.
According to lawyer Tigran Atanesyan, the themes referred at the
scientific conference are the most up-to-date, as in our republic
the institute of law has not yet been formed completely.
The 28 students participating in the scientific conference in their
reports raised such issues, as the inefficiency of the institution of a
public lawyer, the unavailability of a law service. Simultaneously they
did not reject the fact, that there is a prospect of law development
in Armenia.
The conference was organized by "Legal Alliance" Law Company
collaboratively with Armenian Young Bar Association.
The association has been established in 1995 by a group of students
of Yerevan State University Law Faculty and by a number of young
lawyers. Its mission is to develop educated lawyers with high
professional capabilities and new way of thinking, whose activity
will greatly promote the consolidation of right dominance, democracy
and civil society, where the population will be competent and its
rights -defended.
