WWW.ПАСО.RU: 2020

The official website of the Chamber of Lawyers of the Samara Region, having carried out a grandiose upgrade, appeared before users (as of September 2020, this is over 182,700 visitors per year) in a new format. Having won the Best Law Firm Website competition four times in the Best Law Firm Website nomination, paso.ru found it inappropriate to rest on its laurels and presented a new flagship version. Thus, the Chamber of Lawyers of the Samara Region once again confirmed its reputation as the "most advanced" chamber of lawyers and leadership in the effective use of information technologies.

Paso.ru (in any version) complies with the requirements of the Federal Law of May 31, 2002 No. 63-FZ "On advocacy and the legal profession in the Russian Federation", the Code of Professional Ethics of an Attorney, as well as approved by the Decision of the Council of the FPA RF dated February 14, 2020 The procedure for maintaining the website in the information and telecommunications network "Internet" by the bar association of a constituent entity of the Russian Federation and posting information on it.

According to Viktor Makhtev, technical director of the developer company ThePlace, the main task of paso.ru, formulated by the leadership of the Chamber of Lawyers of the Samara Region, is to serve as a working tool for lawyers. Therefore, an adaptive version was created that adapts to different screen resolutions and allows you to work with the site on any mobile device - that is, the user can now, regardless of his location (courtroom, office, car) instantly find the required information. In addition, new technical solutions have made the site more manageable.

The design of paso.ru has radically changed: while maintaining a strict corporate style and laconic design, the developers have proposed solutions that meet modern web trends and help the site to effectively solve functional problems.

The main page literally pulsates, demonstrating the work of PASO in real time: at any time you can see how many lawyers and lawyers' formations are in the register, how many claims have been distributed and orders issued by the Subsidized Legal Aid Center and how many PASO lawyers provide such assistance.

The informativeness of the official PASO Internet resource is difficult not to assess with the highest score: the site contains ALL information about the chamber, including the PASO Charter, the personal composition of self-government bodies, detailed information about the PASO President, job descriptions of employees, documentation (including financial statements). The 18-year history of the Chamber of Lawyers has been painstakingly collected: users can scroll (literally, feeling the rustling of pages) all issues of the Vestnik PASO periodical since 2007, view professionally made photo reports and films about PASO events, as well as study collections of disciplinary practice that summarized the experience work of the PASO Qualification Commission from 2002 to 2017 The quantity and quality of the content posted on the portal is impressive. It is felt that the site is made, as they say, "not for show", but for people, - there is a systematic collective work on its filling.

However, such a massive amount of information is so clearly structured that it is easy and pleasant to use the resource. The site is convenient both for lawyers and applicants for the status of a lawyer, as well as for representatives of state bodies, as well as for citizens. Two menu levels differentiate between working information for each target audience separately and image information about PASO.

Lawyers will find on the website both regulations and decisions of the PASO conferences, decisions and explanations of the PASO Council, and an overview of the practice of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, and sample documents, including a new application form for the Federal Tax Service of Russia for lawyers' offices or a sample payment order.

Applicants for the status of a lawyer who have studied paso.ru materials will obviously have priority in the qualification exam, since their attention is presented with questions for the exams, and a simulator for testing, and information about the School of Young Lawyer PASO.

Government officials will receive the most up-to-date information about each PASO lawyer. In the register of a lawyer, you can find not only by last name, first name, patronymic, number in the register, but even by phone number, and lawyer education - by email address. In the public domain - a list of lawyers participating by appointment as defenders in criminal proceedings, as well as as representatives in accordance with Art. 50 Code of Civil Procedure of the Russian Federation and Art. 54 of the CAS RF, as well as a list of lawyers who are members of the state system of free legal aid in the Samara region.

Citizens are clearly explained who a lawyer is, how to properly file a complaint against a lawyer, and the FAQ section provides answers to frequently asked questions. There are contact details of all PASO employees, a round-the-clock telephone of the Subsidized Care Center.

In addition, the resource is interactive: a feedback form is present on every page. There are links to PASO accounts on social networks: twitter, facebook; to the youtube channel.

The flagship version of paso.ru forms a stable public opinion that the Chamber of Lawyers of the Samara Region is not only a part of the Russian law corporation (as evidenced by numerous direct links to the sites fparf.ru, www.advgazeta.ru), the legal community of the Russian Federation (links to the site Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation, pravo.ru, legal.report), but also the international community (for a foreign audience, all information is duplicated in English and Chinese). And none of the site visitors have any doubts that PASO is developing ahead of its time.
