Legal Profession in Tanzania: The Law and Practice
KShs1,740.00This book is a study of the law and practice relating to the private legal profession in Tanzania. It shows that the profession has played and continues to play an important and indispensable role in the operation of the common law system and its adversarial procedure that forms the backbone of the country’s legal order.
However, certain shortcomings exist in some areas of the professional regime that call for serious reflection on the part of the profession and authorities involved in its practical application. Among topics that receive particular attention here are legal education and the process of qualification for advocacy, legal ethics, the provision of legal services, legal aid, and some basic principles of the professional system.
The book thus proposes changes with a view to addressing the deficiencies that presently exist by suggesting positive reforms on the existing framework. Their adoption would ensure a remarkably improved professional structure.
