Samoa Law
Samoa Law refers to the legal system governing Samoa, rooted in its constitution and influenced by both traditional Samoan customs (fa'a Samoa) and modern statutory laws. It encompasses statutes, regulations, and judicial decisions that regulate civil, criminal, and administrative matters. The system emphasizes community values, respect for customary traditions, and the rule of law. The legal framework aims to uphold justice, protect individual rights, and govern social behavior, balancing modern legal principles with Samoa’s cultural heritage.
