The idea to present a paper about teaching methods in legal profession arose after taking part in the conference of International Association of Law Schools of the world that took place in Montreal last May. The conference focused on the questions of globalization in law studies as well as the newest trends in comparative legal teaching methods. 100 participants took part in the conference and delivered presentations on the newest teaching methods applied in their countries1. While preparing the presentation for Montreal conference, I realized that there is no scientific debate in Lithuania about teaching methods applied in universities or other higher schools that educate lawyers at all. First, I would like to discuss the problems and challenges that influence the search of more advanced methods in legal education.
