	The purpose of this article is to identify challenges that attorneys-at-law face in administrative court proceedings. These include the subjective scope of the obligatory representation provided by advocates or attorneys-at-law and the consequences of the professional counsel’s shortcomings for the rights and obligations of the represented party as well as issues relating to the electronization of proceedings, participation of an attorney-at-law in a hearing, and the costs of legal representation. In conclusion, it has been pointed out that there is a need for a dialogue between judges and attorneys-at-law and advocates, in order to develop a more effective and argumentative way of conducting the trial and to discuss current issues that could improve the course of administrative court proceedings. Attention was also drawn to the need to introduce new forms of professional development for attorneys-at-law and the use of new technologies.
