CHAPTER I
1. INTRODUCTION
The concept of Legal Profession in India:
India has the world’s second largest legal profession with more than 600,000 lawyers. The predominant
service providers are individual lawyers, small or family-based firms.
Most of the firms are involved in the issues of domestic law and majority work under country’s
adversarial litigation system. The conception of legal services as a noble profession rather than services
resulted in formulation of stringent and restrictive
regulatory machinery. These regulations have been justified on the grounds of public policy and ‘dignity
of profession’. However, over the years courts have recognized legal service as a service rendered to the
consumers and have held that lawyers are accountable to the clients in the cases of deficiency of
services.
The aim and scope of study is to know about the concept of legal services in India and professional
ethics of lawyers. The paper shall include the meaning, concept of legal service as a profession in India,
analyze the professional ethics of lawyers, the breach of professional ethics by lawyer and procedures
formulated under the Advocates Act, 196.
3. To know and critically examine the consequences of breach of professional ethics by lawyers.
