Abstract
Professional chambers are a specific type of legal entity. Although their establishment presupposes the interest of a particular professional group, their establishment takes place by law.
The law also lays down the basic organizational structure of these legal entities and the scope of their competence, including the matters in which they exercise public authority. Although professional chambers may also be imparted with the indirect exercise of state administration, it is characteristic and typical that they have their own competencies within the framework of so-called professional self-government.
Legal regulation in the Czech Republic, unlike, for example, that in the Slovak Republic, does not explicitly address who is liable for damage caused by the bodies of the professional chamber in the exercise of their powers. The paper, therefore, focuses on possible solutions to the issues related to liability for such damage.
