Bar associations of Morocco

Fes Bar Association

The professional body of lawyers of Fes and its region — jurisdiction, courts, and how to find a registered lawyer.

What is the Fes Bar Association?

The Fes Bar Association is the professional body of lawyers registered within the jurisdiction of the Court of Appeal of Fes. Like Morocco's sixteen other bar associations, it regulates the legal profession under Law 28-08 governing the practice of law: maintaining the roll of lawyers, discipline, training, and defending the profession's independence.

To practise before the courts of the district, a lawyer must be registered on the bar's roll or on the trainee list. Verifying a lawyer's registration with the Fes Bar Association is therefore an essential step before retaining them.

Jurisdiction and courts

The Fes Bar Association covers the district of the Court of Appeal of Fes, in the Fès-Meknès region. Its main cities include: Fes, Sefrou.

Fes hosts several courts before which the bar's lawyers practise, including: Court of Appeal, Court of First Instance, Administrative Court.

How to verify a lawyer is registered with the Fes Bar Association

Any litigant may confirm that the lawyer they intend to retain is actually on the bar's roll. You can contact the bar's secretariat, located near the Court of Appeal of Fes, or simply ask the lawyer for their registration number — a registered lawyer will provide it without hesitation.

Lawyer profiles on the AvocatLib directory also display the registration details declared by the lawyer (bar, year of oath), making comparison easier before you choose.

Legal aid

If your resources are limited, you may apply for legal aid (assistance judiciaire), which allows a lawyer to be appointed without bearing their full fees. Applications are filed with the legal aid office of the competent court; the bar takes part in appointing lawyers under this procedure and in court-appointed criminal defence.
