This article presents the results of a study on Florence lawyers. Reporting on focus groups with the representatives from local forensic associations, the author develops a reflection on the changes in the Bar’s social profile. In this context, he investigates the functioning problems of the mechanisms controlling access to the profession and the professional labour market as well as the role played by the main actors of regulation.
