How do I become a lawyer in Denmark?
To become an advokat in Denmark, first earn the five-year university law degree (cand.jur.). You then complete three years of qualifying practical legal work, usually as an authorised advokatfuldmaegtig (trainee lawyer) under a practising advokat. During this period you take the compulsory bar training programme (advokatuddannelsen), pass the written bar exam (advokateksamen), and pass a separate practical courtroom-procedure test (retssagsproeve). Finally you apply to the Ministry of Justice (Justitsministeriet) for your advokat licence (advokatbeskikkelse). The whole route typically takes around eight years.
Who regulates lawyers in Denmark?
The Danish Bar and Law Society (Advokatsamfundet) regulates the profession and runs the bar training and examination; the advokat licence (advokatbeskikkelse) is formally granted by the Ministry of Justice (Justitsministeriet).
