Summary/Abstract: The unification of the legal regime of legal professions, starting with the one concerning the attorney profession, has been a priority of the process of completing national unity, after its political and state realization of December 1st, 1918. By several regulations in this field – 1921, 1923 – the uniformization of the legal regime of the attorney profession has been succeeded by overcoming the major existing differences between the situation in the “Old Kingdom” and the one in Transylvania, Banat, Bukovina and Bessarabia, thus creating the national corresponding structures (starting with the Union of Attorneys and, eventually, the Union of Bar Associations). The creation of the Bar Associations of Greater Romania has, therefore, been a major and complex process, contributing to the unification of national juridical life, and to the consolidation of Romanian cohesion. After 100 years since the major event of 1918, the Romanian Bar Association finds itself facing the challenges rising from European and global integration of the profession.
