Description

Professional Ethics provides a comprehensive understanding of key ethical and professional conduct issues in practice at the Bar. Written by experienced practitioners, this manual covers the letter and spirit of the Code of Conduct issued by the Bar Standards Board, as well as the professional conduct principles governing relationships with clients, prosecution or defence counsel, courts, and other members of the legal profession. The book includes a dedicated chapter on core skills, ensuring that readers can uphold high professional standards across all areas of practice. It also identifies potentially problematic areas of practice and provides practical guidance on how to approach these situations. Exercises are included to help readers consider how professional conduct principles apply to realistic scenarios. For reference, relevant extracts from the Code of Conduct for barristers and useful guidance from the Bar Council and the Bar Standards Board are provided at the end of the manual. This book is a valuable resource for trainee barristers and practitioners seeking to refresh their knowledge of professional conduct principles.
