The charter contains a preamble, a preliminary article et 22 articles, divided into seven titles: mutual aid and solidarity; training; the exercise of the legal profession; common achievements; defense; regulation, control and governance; and final provisions. The role of the Lawyer is to ensure the defense of the legal interests of his client », It is written in its preamble. “ In this respect, it is an essential link in any democratic society, within which public and individual freedoms must be guaranteed. The duties that Lawyers impose on themselves, and which constitute their professional ethics, can only be conceived if Lawyers themselves benefit from rights and freedoms. This is why it is up to every State to ensure their protection. Particular attention must be paid to Young Lawyers, whose precariousness inherent in the beginning of the practice exposes them more to attacks on the aforementioned rights and freedoms.” Article 1 states that “each signatory encourages exchanges between Young Lawyers as well as exchanges between Young Lawyers and their representative bodies, with the aim of helping any Young Lawyer who is disturbed in the exercise of his profession, regardless of the place of his professional establishment. ».
