Rami Amir
Edit ProfileEducation
Amir studied law at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, where he received a Bachelor of Laws in 1984. The university was founded in 1918, and its Faculty of Law, established in 1949, was the first law faculty at an Israeli university.
The faculty is regarded as the oldest law school in Israel, and most of the country's Supreme Court justices have graduated from it or taught there. After the Six Day War, the faculty was relocated to the historic Mount Scopus campus, where it has been housed ever since.
Amir's admission to the Israel Bar in 1985 followed his legal education and marked his entry into the regulated legal profession.
Career
Amir's documented professional career is in private legal practice in Israel. He was admitted to the Israel Bar in 1985 and is documented as a partner of Yuval Levy, a Tel Aviv-born lawyer and legal academic.
Levy was born in Tel Aviv in 1932 and, after postgraduate study at Yale University, returned to Israel in 1960 to join the Faculty of Law of Tel Aviv University as a lecturer. In 1973 he established a law firm that represented Israeli and international clients in a wide range of legal matters. Amir's partnership in this professional environment is the principal career fact documented in his record.
The Israel Bar Association, which admitted him, was established under the Bar Association Law of 1961 as the bar association for all Israeli lawyers. Its statutory role in licensing and disciplining the profession gave Amir's bar admission its regulatory context.
Membership
Amir is documented as a member of the Israel Bar Association, the statutory body for lawyers in Israel. Established by the Bar Association Law of 1961, it serves as the only bar association recognized under that law. Membership is mandatory for lawyers licensed in Israel, and the association regulates ethical and disciplinary matters, accredits interns, and conducts the bar examination.
Connections
Amir is documented as a partner of Yuval Levy, an Israeli lawyer and legal academic. Levy was born in Tel Aviv in 1932 and died in 2024. He joined the Tel Aviv University law faculty as a lecturer in 1960, founded a law firm in 1973, and served as a member of the quasi-judicial Appeals Tribunal of the Israel Bar Association.
