The Constitutional Court engages legal advisors to provide legal assistance to citizens

Today the Memorandum on mutual cooperation between the Apparatus of the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the Republican Collegium of Legal Consultants and the Astana Chamber of Legal Consultants was signed.

The parties reached an agreement to provide free legal assistance to citizens in order to enhance the possibilities to protect their rights and legitimate interests before the Constitutional Court.

Within the framework of cooperation, the issue of involving legal consultants in the work of the Center for reception of citizens' appeals of the Constitutional Court is being studied in order to provide support to citizens who are looking for alternative ways to protect their rights on issues that are not within the competence of the constitutional review body.

It is also planned to involve the Chamber of Legal Advisers in the regions in order to provide citizens with access to legal assistance on the ground.
