Lebanon is a civil-law jurisdiction (with strong French legal influence) and a historically important regional legal market centred on Beirut, despite severe economic strain since 2019. Lawyers work in private firms (commercial, banking, arbitration and litigation), in-house roles, and a large UN, INGO and donor sector handling refugee response, human rights and rule-of-law work. Two bar associations operate, in Beirut and Tripoli.
A candidate (typically a Lebanese citizen) holds a Lebanese law degree, then registers as a trainee lawyer with the relevant bar association after passing the affiliation exam for the trainee roll. They complete a three-year traineeship in a practising lawyer's office and pass the Bar's written and oral examinations. On passing, they are admitted to the General Roll and may practise before the Lebanese courts.

To become a lawyer in Lebanon, you generally need Lebanese citizenship and a Lebanese law degree. You register as a trainee lawyer with either the Beirut or Tripoli Bar Association (after passing the affiliation exam for the trainee roll). You then complete a three-year traineeship at the office of a practising attorney. During and at the end of the traineeship you must pass the Bar's annual written and oral examinations (pass mark at least 50/100), after which you are admitted to the General Roll and entitled to practise before the Lebanese courts.
The Beirut Bar Association and the Tripoli Bar Association regulate and admit lawyers in their respective regions; the Ministry of Justice provides the wider justice-sector framework.
