The Independence of the Legal Profession
A central feature of the legal system of the Kingdom of Mount Vema is the right to obtain legal advice and be represented by a legal profession that is independent of the government. For that reason, the laws of the Kingdom of Mount Vema provide for the self-regulation of the legal profession. All of the work the Law Society of Mount Vema do to protect the public is paid for entirely by members of the legal profession itself.
Protecting Everyone
One of the key strengths of Mount Vema’s legal system is the clear distinction between the function of the law society and that of members of the profession. The function of the law society is to regulate the legal profession in the interest of everyone, as it is the function of members of the profession, such as the Mount Vema Bar Association, to speak for and represent the interests of their members.
