The Society seeks to empower young practitioners will relevant skills to survive in practice. The general public is also educated on matters of law, human rights and how to interact with law practitioners. This is a useful program that benefits the whole Basotho nation.
The law society was established in 1967 through an act of Parliament. That act was repealed and replaced by a new Act in 1983. The Legal Practitioners Act and the Law Society Act, and Rules of 1983, are the laws regulating the practice of lawyers. The Law Society is governed by a Council consisting of 5 legal practitioners elected by members of the Society. The Society has its offices at the Palace of Justice and has only one full time employee who performs secretarial and other minimal jobs.
