Elche’s lawyer, Diego García, will be the new dean of the Elche Bar Association after the electoral process which culminated in the votes that took place yesterday at the headquarters of the association. 568 lawyers voted and the result, although very close, gave García the victory over the other candidates Mónica San Emeterio and Cristina Birlanga. He replaces Vicente Pascual who, having two mandates, according to the statutes, could no longer appear. He will be officially proclaimed Dean of the Illustrious Bar Association in the first quarter of 2023.

Diego García presented himself with the aim of a “committed legal profession” as the axis of a program in which he contemplated the defense of the lawyer’s dignity, the creation of the Observatory of the State of Justice or better remuneration for lawyers in the Work shift.

The new Dean of the Order of Lawyers also stated that it is necessary to reduce the economic burden of fees paid by lawyers, advance in a digital transformation to improve legal services or improve relations with the administration of Justice.

Diego García García has already been a member of the Executive Council of the Bar Association. With over 40 years of experience in the legal sector, he is currently a member of the board of directors of Cedelco, the Miguel Hernández University and the CEV.
