The researcher involves various respondents such as Layman (member of the public), law students, and advocates from some of legal firms. The researcher actually attempts to analyze the problem which faces people in Mbeya in accessing legal service of their choice without any difficulties. This because the law has put restriction on the advertising for advocate, which most of the ways are not well accessible by the public at large.
In conducting of this study, a researcher found that the people in Mbeya are mostly not aware to where may found advocate who may be competence for their case at hand and are not as well capable to access of the other legal service due to the current ways and restrictions which do not enable the public being aware by those ways. Therefore, the law relating to advertising for advocate result to the denies of their right to legal service. Therefore, due to this problem there are need for the amendments of the current laws governing advertising for advocate and there need for additional ways of advertising that may enable the public being aware and have access to the legal service, as well as inclusion of relevant provision to the principal legislation. So, there is a need of a significant legal reform for the sake of insuring public being aware and capable of having legal service of their choice.
