The consultation of a legal advisor in civil actions is regulated in § 90 I ZPO. The prevailing court decides who they admit as an advisor. The precondition of being a legal advisor is expediency and a need on the part of the involved person. That is why family members of age, people with a qualification for judicial office, consumer advice centres, employees of the involved person and legal entities of public law can appear as legal assistance. If someone who wants to be a legal advisor does not fit into the mentioned categories, the court can separately declare them as a legal advisor. This means that the court itself can decide if they want to admit the person as a legal advisor if they do not fit in the categories.
