Lawyers should uphold moral ethics

Do lawyers have a moral and ethical duty to ensuring justice is well and truly served?
Do they have a moral obligation to not protect clients knowing the clients they represent are nothing but a bunch of conniving thieves?
I raise these questions in light of the fact that one particular lawyer seems to lack these morals.
He has been representing a thief who has been swindling funds meant for an incorporated land group.
He knows very well that his client has no family ties to be in that ILG.
Very well-respected leaders in that society, including two longest serving councillors from colonial days, have sworn under oath to the very fact that this lawyer’s client is not supposed to be benefiting let alone heading that ILG.
Observing the court room demeanour and conducts of this lawyer, who even harasses his colleagues on the opposing side, makes one think he is actually colluding and advising his client to foster such criminal activities.
The aggression he uses to argue his client’s case only brings to fore his cultural and societal upbringing.
He absolutely lacks the eloquence and elegance that the legal profession requires.
It’s a pity that the adage “lawyers are liars” really fits this lawyer, unfortunately demeaning the legal profession.
The Law Society should be keeping tabs on these kinds of lawyers and weed them out.
I believe that his conduct will one day lead to his own demise.

Disappointed,
