As a result of qualification exams at the Palace of Advocates 207
advocates have been successfully qualified among 346 applicants. Ruben
Sahakyan, the chairman of Palace of Advocates, refuted the rumors
that the committee has been bribed up to $2000-3000.
Speaking about the conflict between the committee and Sahakyan,
the chairman said, “It is natural,” saying the arguments were about
grading of some eight applicants. Sahakyan hoped next year the exams
will be more successful.
The chairman hoped the status of advocates will rise in the public
over time. He said at the moment they do not have high public demand.
The exams are the initiative of American Bar Association aimed to
foster independence of advocates.
