Professional Conduct For Lawyers And Judges

By Beverley G. Smith, Professor Emeritus

Faculty of Law, University of New Brunswick

This is a third edition of Professor Smith's book, Professional Conduct For Lawyers and Judges, first published by Maritime Law Book in 1998. (The 1998 edition was an expanded and revised edition of Professional Conduct for Canadian Lawyers, published in 1989 by Butterworths.) The third edition is a revised and updated version of the 1998 publication, including expanded chapers on "The Lawyer As Judge", "The Lawyer in Civil Pre-Trial" (incl. alternate dispute resolution) and "The Lawyer's Other Lives" (incl. conduct in private life). References in the text have been updated to incorporate recent cases and changes to professional conduct codes, including in particular, the Ontario Rules of Professional Conduct (2000) and the Newfoundland Code of Professional Conduct (1999). The text is approximately 600 pages (50 more pages than the 1998 version).

This text is an up-to-date authoritative reference for your legal ethical questions. It has been successfully used by law students and practitioners since its publication in 1998. Click here for a list of chapter contents.
