Abstract

Advocate profession is a component of the law enforcement system and is included as part of a noble profession (officum nobille) so that it is obligatory to obey and uphold the ethical values of the profession. Therefore, it takes a unified and shared perception of values in carrying out legal practices so that justice for society can be realized. However, currently, professional advocate organizations in Indonesia are experiencing divisions where there is more than one advocate organization that claims to be a legitimate advocate organization. This research will examine and evaluate the juridical basis for the establishment of each advocate organization and seek to analyze the reconstruction and restructuring of these professional organizations in the future so that the legal services provided can truly be based on the values of justice, certainty, and the benefits of law to society. This research is a normative juridical research. The results of the interim research show that the need for a united advocate organization is needed so that law enforcement does not just protect every advocate organization that commits an act that is detrimental to the interests of a person or society but returns to the spirit of justice and certainty based on the principles of professionalism and independence.
