摘要
律师言论是律师作为公民享有言论自由的体现，是受宪法保障的一项公民的基本权利。但律师庭外言论有不同于普通公民言论的特殊性，存在影响自身信誉及行业形象、构成不正当竞争、侵害当事人合法权益、误导煽动社会情绪、妨碍司法公正和权威的可能性。特别是在网络新形势下，律师庭外言论呈现出新趋势，对司法实践带来了始料未及的冲击与挑战。因此，对律师庭外言论进行合法、合理的限制十分必要。
本文第一部分是对律师庭外言论与言论自由关系基本理论的论述，从普遍性与特殊性对两者之间的关系进行了探讨，从三大方面突出强调律师庭外言论不同于一般公民言论自由的特殊性，同时作为对其进行规制的三大理由，为下文的论述奠定基础。第二部分是对自媒体时代的律师庭外言论的进一步深化，主要涉及言论的特征、正反两方面的作用及其可能带来的危害。第三部分是对我国律师庭外言论规则的梳理，从全国到地方，层层分化，是对我国现有制度的反思，再结合前两部分的论述，认为对律师的庭外言论进行规制是十分紧迫且必要的。第四部分将视野转向境外，是对域外立法的简单介绍，主要选取了对律师庭外言论的规制较具有代表性的几个国家和地区进行了比较分析，为我国制定律师庭外言论的限制规则打开了眼界、提供了参考。第五部分是笔者通过上文的分析与考察，提出从三个方面在不同内容、不同层次，以正面列举与反面排除相结合，对我国律师庭外言论规则之构建提出具有可操作性的建议。最后一部分是对律师庭外言论还涉及律师执业的其他规则的简要概述，以期对律师庭外言论规制的作出更加充分、全面、深入的研究。
