SOCIO-POLITICAL NECESSITY TO REFORM THE ADVOCACY IN RUSSIA
This article analyzes the reform of the legal services market and the advocacy on the basis of the government "Justice" Program. The government "Justice" Program provides for the reform of the institute of advocacy. The program addresses the need to streamline the system of providing legal aid and reform the advocacy. It is planned to clear the legal services market from unscrupulous parties. The sub-program provides for the development of an effective mechanism permitting an exclusion of advocates from their profession. The reform of the advocacy is aimed to increase the advocats’ responsibility and competence in exchange for providing them with a guaranteed cost-attractive part of the legal services market. The program calls for a uniform advocat’s status for all those involved in the provision of legal advice and a switch to the advocats’ monopoly on court representation. Advocats’ monopoly will allow admitting only real professionals to the representation of the citizens’ interests. Scientists' opinions about the reform of the advocacy divided. The author analyzes the radical and humanitarian approaches to this issue. The author critically analyzes problems and proposals accumulated over the past 12 years that were aimed at reforming and improving the future of the united Russian advocacy, proceeding from the international experience and domestic mistakes and miscalculations. He also attempts to find the most acceptable option for reforming the institute of advocacy and makes his own recommendations. In addition, the article touches another, no less acute problem, the problem of corruption, noting that the legal profession is the driving mechanism of corruption, its central part and one of the most dangerous ones. The author analyzes the concept of the bill № 471327-6 "On the basics of social control in the Russian Federation". Summing up, the author notes that the advocacy’s independence from the power presumes very high professionalism and expertise on the part of the advocates, and above all, their self-control. Today, in the absence of advocates’ public self-control, this independence has become self-serving in impunity.
Key words: "Justice" Program, advocats’ monopoly, punishment for the advocate’s corruption, advocates’ public self-control, age limit for the advocates, government, power, society, efficiency.
