In the context of social division of labor and specialization,it seems that only legal practitioners have direct experiences of law,and the layman's experiences of law can only be counted as an indirect experience with professionals as intermediaries.But from the perspective of phenomenology,people's social actions must include a respect of law.Therefore,the experience of the law is not primarily an indirect experience,but first and foremost a direct with-experience.For all members of society,the law is directly accessible.In particular,professionals with legal literacy can also treat the respect of law as a self-sufficient object.These two experience-modes to the law are not mutually exclusive.For example,in the process of legal consultation,these two modes refer to and rely on each other.In court trials,the judge can also integrate these two modes,and the legal tense thus obtains the third and the final modes of givenness,that is,to be given in evidence.
