WOMEN AT WORK

Members are cordially invited to listen to an inspiring woman who has put Law in focus;
Anne Ramberg, General Secretary of the The Swedish Bar Association will give a presentation of the work and function of the Association.

The Swedish Bar Association was founded as the result of an individual initiative in 1887 and gained official status when the new Code of Judicial Procedure entered into force in 1948.

The Association resides in magnificent building overlooking Djurgården and the house alone is worth a visit. The association is an association under private law, whose purpose is to maintain high ethical and professional standards in the legal profession, monitor legal developments and endeavour to ensure that they benefit from the association’s experience.

The association frequently acts as a referral body in consultative processes and gives its opinion on virtually all new draft central legislation. The association also performs certain public functions. It has been delegated administrative tasks under the Code of Judicial Procedure and thus acts as a public authority, particularly in disciplinary matters.
