The purpose of the scientific article is to find out how the obligations to comply with compliance affect a lawyer legal practice and to substantiate the importance of the competencies obtained as a result of the acquired theoretical know ledge regarding the general requirements of compliance in the legal practice (in the context of introducing the academic discipline "Professional ethics of a lawyer and general requirements of compliance" into the educational and professional program Law for the second (master) level of higher education). Methods: to achieve the specified goal, general and special scientific methods were used. The use of these methods allows us to analyze the main types of services/areas in a lawyer legal practice related to compliance. Results: compliance with general compliance requirements is not secondary, but is a crucial element of legal practice. For lawyers and law firms, a safe path is a documented, risk-oriented compliance program based on the recommendations of national Associations, regular training and transparent management. Discussion: compliance obligations increasingly guide everyday legal practice. Positioning itself as an external constraint, the compliance system directly affects the choice of counterpartis, the reception of clients, document management, cross-border consulting and internal management. Particularly important for a lawyer’s legal practice are such areas of compliance as anti-money laundering, professional secrecy, data protection, continuous professional development and the system of ensuring protection.
