The research method is normative juridical, namely examining regulations and combining them with other theories as a tool in uncovering the problem of the legality of advocates' honorariums in the context of state law and Islamic law, especially with a statute approach. The findings in this research are that the legality of advocate honorariums is stated in the Compilation of Sharia Economic Law Article 307 and Law no. 18 Yr. 2003 concerning Advocates Articles 21 and 22 in terms of determining the costs of legal aid services.
