It has been 5 years since the foundation of the Estonian Law Centre. As the summer holidays are over and the new training semester has began, it is good time to look back at events which started 5 years ago and to overview ELC`s more important projects in progress.

Αυτό λένε οι ίδιοι ότι είναι. Αν θες να το πεις «Κέντρο Νομικών Σπουδών» ή κάπως αλλιώς, το βήμα δικό σου, Μίνα μου.

Γιατί πάλι από κείμενο της Ε.Ε.:

Οι επιθυμούντες την παροχή νομικής συνδρομής μπορούν να υποβάλουν αίτηση μεταβαίνοντας προσωπικά, τηλεφωνώντας ή γράφοντας στο νομικό κέντρο (Law Centre) που βρίσκεται πλησιέστερα στην κατοικία τους.

Μίνα, προς το παρόν δεν έχω βρει αυτόν τον φορέα μεταφρασμένο στα ελληνικά και απλώς αυτοσχεδιάζω, εξ ου και ο χαμηλός βαθμός σιγουριάς. Τον βρήκα μόνο αμετάφραστο. http://www.google.com/search?hl=el&rls=GGGL,GGGL:2006-39,GGG...

Ευχαριστώ τη Μαρτίν που μας βρήκε τη μετάφραση στα γαλλικά και θαρρώ πως σε βοηθά να αυτοσχεδιάσεις όπως νομίζεις στα ελληνικά.
