The Finnish Bar Association
is an organization whose activity is regulated by the Advocates Act of 1958.
The organization was preceded by a registered association dating to back 1919.
The Bar Association has about 2,000 members who are thus known as advocates (in Finnish: asianajaja; in Swedish: advokat). Law firms additionally employ some 600 associates. Approximately 130 of the Association’s members are employed by public legal aid offices.
On this website you’ll find facts about the Finnish Bar Association, the rules and regulations applicable to members, information about membership requirements and instructions on how to apply for registration as an EU-lawyer in the Finnish Bar Association.
There is also a search engine which allows you to search for lawyers according to their spheres of activities and locations.
