Internetbar.org, Inc. is established to address issues associated with the practice of law in cyberspace and with harmonizing laws internationally that affect human rights starting with privacy, identity theft and e-commerce, and other issues that may emerge as globalization and virtual practices advance.
We believe that lawyers must look for a way to make laws for a networked economy, starting by connecting with each other in cyberspace, across cultures, in trusted online communities. Internetbar.org will seek to provide lawyers with the tools they need to practice legally, ethically and successfully in cyberspace, including developing best practices, technology tools, internet communications technologies (ICT), collaborative tools, tools to increase security in cyberspace, international referral for use by lawyers and the public and online dispute resolution.
Internetbar.org will create an international community of lawyers practicing in cyberspace to help shape the global dialog about the rule of law in a changing world, addressing transnational justice, national sovereignty, and corporate power in a global economy within the norms and cultures of the world. Internetbar.org will seek law reform to benefit access to justice and the legal system.
Internetbar.org will work in a trusted virtual community to democratize communications, build civil society networks and develop an e-discourse structure in cyberspace using ICT to build trust, consensus, social justice and human rights and to create meaning between participants for e-democracy. By addressing these urgent matters in our times, Internetbar.org hopes to become the representative bar of lawyers practicing law in cyberspace
