Doctors of Law will be exempt from lawyer training and practice probation

View Post in Vietnamese: >> Tiến sỹ Luật sẽ được miễn đào tạo và tập sự hành nghề luật sư

I heard that a doctor of law will not have to attend lawyer training nor undergo apprenticeship for practicing law. Is this correct?

Based on Clause 2, Article 13 of the Law on Lawyers 2006, it is stipulated:

Professor, Associate Professor in Law; Doctor of Law will be exempted from lawyer professional training.

And according to Clause 7, Article 1 of the amended Law on Lawyers 2012, it is also stipulated that persons exempted from apprenticeship in legal practice include:

Persons who have been judges, prosecutors, senior investigators, intermediate investigators, professors, associate professors in law, Doctors of Law, senior judicial inspectors in the judicial branch, senior inspections in the inspection branch, senior experts, senior researchers, senior lecturers in the legal field are exempt from apprenticeship in legal practice.

Thus, according to the above regulations, Doctors of Law will be exempted from both professional training and apprenticeship in legal practice.

Sincerely!
