Abstract: Profession of an advocate brings together private interest of a particular person, who is represented by an advocate, and public interest of a state, aimed to protect law and order, rights and freedoms of people. In fact, advocates, as representatives of civil society, are able to ensure adequate protection of rights and freedoms of physical and juridical persons by the state. Accordingly, status of this legal profession, as well as status of an advocate, should be characterized within the framework of civil society institutions. This article contains analysis of a number of constitutional legal issues in Russian legal theory and practice, as well as evaluation of advocate’s status. Authors give a definition of advocate’s status and study its key elements.
