Description
Considering that the term “ethics” permeates the entire gamut of activities we familiarly term legal practice, our established ethical standards form the bedrock of every action and with society, with the court, with fellow lawyers and finally, with the client. It is this observance of such ethical guideposts that determine if a lawyer shall continue with his chosen vocation or barred from its lofty pursuits.
This new edition therefore attempts to annotate the the newly minted Code of Professional Responsibility and Accountability as well as the New Code of Judicial Conduct whose provisions provide members of the bench and the bar, with guidelines on the proper manner of practicing the world’s noblest profession.
