The main thing in the profession of a lawyer is the possession of the logic of evaluation and reasoning, the ability to prove to the opponent a legal way of solving certain issues having legal consequences. Times when lawyers were sorely lacking, long ago: today in the South Kazakhstan region, one can study jurisprudence in several universities of very different profiles. In this situation, it is important for the school graduate to orientate, where, what, and how much qualitatively, he can be taught. Despite the impressive number of universities that provide legal education for the region, it is not yet necessary to talk about overproduction of specialists of this profile. The acquired knowledge is fixed when the students pass professional practice, which gives the student an opportunity to learn how to develop normative and legal acts, to interpret and apply laws and other normative legal acts, to make decisions and perform legal actions strictly in accordance with the law, to draw up and execute legal documents, to identify, disclose and investigate crimes and offenses, take the necessary measures to restore violated rights, give qualifications TED legal opinions and advice. In general, the profession of a lawyer is connected with the possibility to positively influence the situation. A lawyer can help an unjustly offended person, protect the rights of the victim from a crime, help a person illegally dismissed from work, restore or protect the disputed property or housing rights. The work of a lawyer is a struggle for the right. During its history, the faculty in 2007 and 2017 successfully passed three state attestations for compliance with licensing requirements. At present, the faculty faces new tasks to improve the quality of educational services.
