Ethics

This book identifies a number of important characteristics of professions. First, that a professional must be disciplined. Second, a professional must adhere to certain ethical standards that are accepted as binding on all members of that profession. When one elects to become a member of the bar, one becomes a member of the legal profession, and as a member of the legal profession, one voluntarily submits to the rules of professional conduct that govern the way in which members of the legal profession are expected to behave and conduct their business. This is a reminder to anyone who would like to join any profession as this rule cuts across all professions in the world.
