Today, October 8, Ukraine honors people whose daily work is the foundation of the rule of law — lawyers. This holiday is for everyone who has dedicated their lives to serving the law and justice: from judges, prosecutors, and attorneys to notaries, legal advisors, and human rights defenders.


The date of October 8 was not chosen by chance. It is believed that on this day in 1016, Prince Yaroslav the Wise of Kyiv issued the first collection of laws of Kyivan Rus — the legendary Ruska Pravda. This document became the foundation of Ukrainian legal culture, emphasizing that the strength of the state lies in the rule of law.


In modern Ukraine, especially in times of war and rapid change, the role of lawyers is becoming critical. They not only interpret laws, but also help citizens and visitors to the country defend their rights, conclude important agreements, legalize their stay, and restore justice on a daily basis.
