This article content is aimed at characterization of urgent problematic issues, which are connected with determining the place of forensic expertise in cases related to the protection of consumer rights and the development of ways of solving emerging problems. The article emphasizes that in accordance with the current legislation, consumers have the right to protect their rights to the necessary quality, safety of goods and services, as well as the right to compensation for losses caused by goods of inadequate quality, dangerous to life and health, etc. It is determined that the main control in the sphere of trade is exercised by the State Service for Product Safety and Consumer Protection, and it is established that the problems are the inability of this service to carry out an instant check on a consumer complaint of a particular point of sale. At the present stage, the problem of citizens' rights including rights in the sphere of consumption, is extremely urgent, because accession of Ukraine to the European Union requires the application of European standards of product quality. In developed country, the consumer is a major player in market relations, which is focused on the production and improvement of the quality of goods and services. The application of sanctions to sellers, manufacturers of poor-quality products does not always give the necessary effect, because usually an unscrupulous manufacturer (seller, executor) pays a fine and continues to provide poor quality services, to supply products that are dangerous to life and health. Important factor in improving the quality of products and services provided is the legal knowledge of consumers themselves in protecting their rights. Consumer rights have a prerogative over the rights of sellers and producers, since human life and health under the Constitution of Ukraine is a fundamental value of the state. The authors described the actions that the consumer should take to protect their violated rights, and emphasized that in cases where the consumer seeks to restore justice for this issue, he should ask an expert institution to perform a forensic trade research.

The main contents of the ethical norms of public administration are the supremacy of public welfare, harmful inaction, and careful use of power, social responsibility, equal competition and enhancement of trust. Contradiction is a philosophical category reflecting the unity of opposites within and between things, and is the core content of materialist dialectics. The main social contradiction is the one that occupies the core position and dominates the society. Administration itself is not the ultimate goal, it is a series of communication channels to convey people's needs and wishes, and to ensure that these needs and wishes can be reflected and considered through state control. Similarly, these channels also play the role of the government in conveying policies and implementing tasks to the people. Therefore, if these channels are to make positive and significant contributions to people-centered development, the role of administration must adapt to the social-cultural environment and tradition.

This article discusses legal certainty as one of the objectives of Law No. 5 of 1960 concerning Agrarian (Undang-Undang Nomor 5 Tahun 1960 tentang Pokok-Pokok Agraria) Principles and the influence of land rights certificates as a strong means of proof of land registration. The provision of guarantees of legal certainty to holders of land rights is accommodated in Law Number 5 of 1960 concerning Agrarian Principles and further regulated in Government Regulation Number 24 of 1997 concerning Land Registration (Peraturan Pemerintah Nomor 24 Tahun 1997 tentang Pendaftaran Tanah). Using a normative legal view, this article refers to regulations on agrarian. The discussion of the article looks at the role of the government in providing opportunities for all citizens to register land with the aim of obtaining legal certainty and minimizing disputes. This article looks at the purpose of issuing certificates in land registration activities so that right-holders can easily prove that they are the right-holders. This is done so that rights holders can obtain legal certainty and legal protection. However, the land rights certificate issued is considered to be still lacking in minimizing disputes and it is assumed that it has not affected the land rights owners to protect their rights.
