Summary/Abstract: The article reveals different directions of the influence of Roman law on the formation of the legal consciousness of a modern Ukrainian lawyer. Since the establishment of Soviet Power in Ukraine, the role of this discipline in the educational process has been narrowed. However, the practical role of Roman law, which consists in its forming influence on the legal consciousness, and the propaedeutic, axiological and methodological significance of Roman law, remains fundamental to every legal profession nowadays.
