Summary/Abstract: The problem of introducing the institute of professional judicial representation in line with special qualification requirements into commercial, civil, and administrative procedures has been considered. Based on the analysis of the legislation concerned with the problem under study, the role of professional judicial representation has been discussed. In addition, the problem of quality of modern legal education has been investigated. A great emphasis has been laid on finding an optimal combination of methods of education that will suit the needs of the democratic state and create a foundation for professional legal representation. Moreover, the potential of using moot courts and business games during the educational process has been studied. It has been proved that these forms of education contribute significantly to the educational process and enhance its pace, thereby allowing students to develop analytical thinking and vital skills of legal analysis. It has been noted that this mode of education enables students to act as judge, defendant, and complainant, i.e., they learn the trial and procedure from all sides.
