The Good Lawyer explores the ethical and professional challenges
that confront people who work in the law - or are considering it -
and offers principled and pragmatic advice about how to overcome
such challenges. This book takes a holistic approach that begins
with your innate humanity. It urges you to examine your motives for
seeking a career in law, to foster a deep understanding of what it
means to be 'good', and to draw on your virtue and judgement when
difficult choices arise, rather than relying on compliance with
rules or codes. The Good Lawyer analyses four important areas of
legal ethics - truth and deception, professional secrets, conflicts
of interest, and professional competence - and explains the choices
that are available when determining a course of moral action. It
links theory to practice, and includes many examples, diagrams and
source documents to illustrate ethical concepts, scenarios and
decision making.
