Lawyer and client document exchange

The article discussed the issue of delivering documents that a lawyer has received from their client upon the completion of their task, in accordance with Article 89 of the Law Regulating the Legal Profession. It pointed out that a lawyer does not have the right to refuse to deliver the documents, whether during the course of a case or upon completion of the assignment, and that they must provide a receipt proving the client’s receipt of the original documents upon request. If the lawyer refuses to hand over the documents, the client has the right to request the competent court or the urgent matters judge to compel them. Additionally, a professional complaint can be filed with the Bar Association, which, however, does not have the authority to issue mandatory orders for delivery. The article advised specialists to obtain a receipt when receiving documents to avoid issues related to proof, explaining that non-original documents are handled differently, and suggesting resorting to the judiciary or the Bar Association depending on the situation.
