Abstract: The fast development of information technologies has led to a global digitalization of society. The consequence of such a phenomenon in the field of legal education is the formation of the environment of developed data processing, modular construction of information systems. As a result, the process of accumulation of knowledge for the formation of professional competencies skills has been gradually changing the form of its implementation. Well-known higher education goals, which are exposed in such elements as knowledge, understanding, the forms of their obtaining have been changing. Higher law education institutions are not main source of education any more. Those basic education goals, the achievement of which is the task of higher education, do not get a correspondent positive reflection in society. A high level of knowledge at the absence of skills of their application is a main factor of professional deformation of a future lawyer. In order to achieve high efficiency in studying, it is necessary to take into account such principles as systemacity, integrity, a combination of different forms of training a professional lawyer. The specificity of teaching legal disciplines is the need to form not only an understanding of the subject in students, but also to give the opportunity to independently develop practical skills of applying the acquired knowledge. At the same time, considerable attention should be paid to the applied component of the educational process of a lawyer. Taking into account the inseparable link between theory and practice, the teaching of legal disciplines requires a positive disproportion of doctrinal teaching of the material in relation to the relevant practical processing of theoretical knowledge. At the same time, taking into account the pace of development of society, individualization and specialization of acquired knowledge, the change of forces proportion in the ratio of theoretical and practical should be prioritized towards the latter one. In our opinion, this is due to the fact that the narrow specialization of a lawyer requires not so much the theoretical study of educational material, but a relief improvement of practical skills in the process of obtaining. The case study method (or method of certain training situation) is widely noticeable among the legal teaching methods in the majority of European countries. Its specific nature contains in a principal denial of a single correct solution, as a result, the students are constrained to take independent decisions and prove them, they participate, jointly with the teacher, in a direct discussion of business situations or tasks (cases), which are usually prepared in a written form and composed on a real facts basis, where the student take part on-the-scene. The main achievement of this method is that it promotes the development of the ability to analyze situations, evaluate alternatives, gives solving practical problems skills, which is very relevant for a modern specialist. Case study allows increasing the number of practical classes, gradually reducing the teaching of theoretical material by the teacher in favour of improving practical skills. And the theoretical load reduction is compensated by independent processing of the corresponding material.
