Partner Dr Christine Calleja secured her position on the Council of the Malta Chamber of Advocates in the election held earlier this week. The Council’s responsibility involves the management and operation of the chamber over the forthcoming three-year period, extending until 2026.

The Malta Chamber of Advocates functions as the official body representing warranted advocates who have been admitted to practice at the Bar of Malta. Legally acknowledged, it serves as the consultative and participatory representative for advocates concerning matters connected to the organisation and administration of justice. Beyond this role, the Chamber serves as a professional association, a lobbyist, an educator, and to some extent, a regulator. Additionally, it offers guidance to advocates and the general public regarding matters of professional ethics and the appropriate execution of advocates’ duties.
