The career of a Legal Advisor is one of immense responsibilities, pressure and excitement. A Legal Advisor can be employed in both, the government, as well as the private sector.

Legal Advisor Roles and Duties

He must take care of the conformity of a new treaty with general rules of the laws in practice and previously accepted legal commitments of the party which he represents.

He must also take care of the legal-technical correctness and necessary precision of the text: clear and non-ambiguous formulation, appropriate final and transitory provisions.

The legal advisor sometimes has to represent his client/the party he represents before the national courts and sometimes before international tribunals or arbitration commissions.
