Code of Ethics

Ethics are vital in any profession, but they are probably even more so in the legal field since lawyers are often viewed with distrust. Furthermore, legal ethics are important in assisting attorneys in balancing these competing interests and working to promote good faith.

These include but are not limited to Professional Responsibility, Confidentiality, Competence, Professional Judgment, etc.
