The professional supervision system for attorneys is based on law, and it is our duty to ensure that Finland has a body of attorneys-at-law with a high standard of professional excellence. In addition to attorneys-at-law, we supervise public legal aid attorneys and licensed legal counsel.

Constitutional State 2025

In every constitutional state, there exists a body of attorneys-at-law independent from governmental authority, which offers high-quality, reliable legal services to both individuals and corporations. The judicial policy goals of the Finnish Bar Association are presented and their progress tracked on a separate website.
