Introduction: the paper deals with the relationship of legal attitudes and legal behavior of the individual. The mechanism of a legal attitude is the translation of the legal regulations into reality through the transformation of the image of the legal norm designed in the legal awareness of the individual into the willingness to behave legally significantly. The special significance of the studies of the legal attitude of the individual in the theory of law is that it allows you to adjust the legal behavior of the individual. Methods: the paper uses the general scientific and specific scientific methods of cognition, which include the systemic, structural, functional, comparative law, formal-legal, problem-theoretical methods. Results: the author identifies and analyzes the impact of the legal attitudes on the legal behavior of the individual. Conclusions: the legal attitudes determine the legal behavior of the individual. With a high level of legal culture and legal awareness of the individual, it is not necessary for him to follow the models of lawful behavior in the current situation, whereas with the existing legal positive attitudes, this probability is high (the exception may be those cases where the person is forced to commit a crime, actually having no choice of his own behavior, etc.). Other types of attitudes, such as social, moral and ethical ones, influence the quality of the legal attitude of the individual.
Key words: legal attitude, legal behavior, legal norms, normative-legal models of behavior, legal activeness.
