About us
The UIA is also...
Our mission
At present, through its collective members (bars, federations, and associations) and individual members, the Union Internationale des Avocats (UIA) brings together two million lawyers from 110 countries. The UIA's members have extensive legal expertise, which is reflected in high-level legal debates within its technical commissions and working groups, as well as in resolutions adopted regarding current problems faced by the legal profession throughout the world.
To promote professional excellence, the UIA offers seminars, training sessions and other events throughout the year around the world. The UIA is committed to defending the cause of lawyers who may be pressured or threatened anywhere in the world, through its lobbying and advocacy activities, and speaks out against forces contrary to the proper functioning of the justice system and legally instituted bar associations.
The UIA is the only major multi-lingual and multi-cultural international lawyers' organization, open to all the world's lawyers, both general practitioners and specialists.
