This book equips law students with the tools, habits, and sensibilities needed to take ethics seriously and to prepare themselves for the demanding ethical landscape of legal practice in South Africa.
Structured in three parts that build on one another, the first part of the book covers the foundational principles of the legal profession, its history and the frameworks that regulate it. The second part focuses on the duties of the legal professional, illustrated by scenarios which assist students in grappling with ethical issues. In the third part the complexities of the South African context are addressed.
