其他摘要：In Colombia, the State guarantees the right to have access to justice for everyone whenever they want and consider it appropriate, because this service is free, autonomous and efficient as established by Law 270 of 1996 (Administration of Justice Law). Because of this, the 1991 Constitution of Colombia in its Article 29 guarantees the right to due process and in turn access to the administration of justice by stating, “Anyone who is accused is entitled to a defense and the assistance of a lawyer, either chosen or appointed”. Thus, this article proposes a study of each guiding principle of the civil justice system in order to determine in what points the identified principles are articulated with law offices in pursuit of the a new way of interpreting their work by using norms such as Decree 196 of 1971, Decree 0765 of 1977, Act 270 of 1996, Act 583 of 2000 and Act 941 of 2005, which determine the path that the country’s law offices should follow. The research was done by applying logical-historical methods, because the work uses historic social-legal content to show the customs and practices that could support the essential and urgent change needed in the judicial system regarding the legislative formulation and consecration of a broader social role for Colombia’s law offices that is not limited to simply ensuring the access to justice.
