Professionalism
The
firm recognizes that we are more than a business, we are a profession.
As such, we earnestly promote the highest ethical standards. The firm
believes that part of our responsibilities is admirably expressed in
the preamble of The Virginia Code of Professional Responsibility. The
following are excerpts from this preamble, and provided for your
information.
…
As advisor, a lawyer provides a client with an informed understanding
of the client's legal rights and obligations and explains their
practical implications. As advocate, a lawyer zealously asserts the
client's position under the rules of the adversary system. As
negotiator, a lawyer seeks a result advantageous to the client but
consistent with requirements of honest dealing with others. As
intermediary between clients, a lawyer seeks to reconcile their
divergent interests as an advisor and, to a limited extent, as a
spokesperson for each client…
…In
all professional functions, a lawyer should be competent, prompt and
diligent. A lawyer should maintain communication with a client
concerning the representation. A lawyer should keep in confidence
information relating to representation…
…A
lawyer's conduct should conform to the requirements of the law, both
in professional service to clients and in the lawyer's business and
personal affairs. A lawyer should use the law's procedures only for
legitimate purposes and not to harass or intimidate others. A lawyer
should demonstrate respect for the legal system and for those who
serve it, including judges, other lawyers and public officials. While
it is a lawyer's duty, when necessary, to challenge the rectitude of
official action, it is also a lawyer's duty to uphold legal process.
…
As a member of a learned profession, a lawyer should cultivate
knowledge of the law beyond its use for clients, employ that knowledge
in reform of the law and work to strengthen legal education. A lawyer
should be mindful of deficiencies in the administration of justice and
of the fact that the poor, and sometimes persons who are not poor,
cannot afford adequate legal assistance, and should therefore devote
professional time and civic influence in their behalf….
…
a lawyer is also guided by personal conscience and the approbation of
professional peers. A lawyer should strive to attain the highest level
of skill…
A
lawyer's responsibilities as a representative of clients, an officer
of the legal system and a public citizen are usually harmonious… a
lawyer can be a zealous advocate on behalf of a client and at the same
time assume that justice is being done….
