For ease of reference, the full Code of Conduct is provided as an appendix at the end of the manual.
Professional Conduct is essential reading for all trainee barristers, and is a useful source of
reference for practitioners seeking to refresh their knowledge of the rules and principles of professional conduct which govern practice at the Bar.Readership: Students studying on the Bar Vocational Course.
