PREAMBLE AND PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
Preamble 1
The continued existence of a free and democratic society depends upon recognition of the concept that justice is based upon the rule of law grounded in respect for the dignity of the individual and his capacity through reason for enlightened self-gov- ernment.2 Law so grounded makes justice possi- ble, for only through such law does the dignity of the individual attain respect and protection. With- out it, individual rights become subject to unre- strained power, respect for law is destroyed, and rational self-government is impossible.
Lawyers, as guardians of the law, play a vital role in the preservation of society. The fulfillment of this role requires an understanding by lawyers of their relationship with and function in our legal system.3 A consequent obligation of lawyers is to maintain the highest standards of ethical con- duct.
In fulfilling his professional responsibilities, a lawyer necessarily assumes various roles that re- quire the performance of many difficult tasks. Not every situation which he may encounter can be foreseen,4 but fundamental ethical principles
are always present to guide him. Within the framework of these principles, a lawyer must with courage and foresight be able and ready to shape the body of the law to the ever-changing relation- ships of society.5
