They provide legal advice, draft legal documents, and represent clients in court proceedings. The community also contributes to the development of legal practices and the advancement of legal knowledge through research and discussion. The structure and operation of the asianajajayhteisö are defined by Finnish law, ensuring its independence and its service to the public.
