Lawyer's Day in Belarus

December 6 · Level 4 · #1371 of 2238

Lawyer's Day in Belarus is a holiday for the legal professions: judges, advocates, notaries, prosecutors and in-house counsel. It reminds everyone that law and legal awareness matter in daily life.

How it is celebrated: there are formal meetings, awards for outstanding specialists, and discussions of new legislation and court practice. Open days and free legal consultations for the public are often organised around the date.

Lawyers like to joke that they never get a day off from the law. On this day, though, they can talk about the traditions of the profession instead of case files.
