Committees
Ethics Committee
The governing standards of the Legal Profession are contained in
The Legal Profession
Act, the Rules of the Law Society of
Saskatchewan and the Code of Professional Conduct.
Professional Conduct rulings rendered by the Law Society of
Saskatchewan Ethics Committee are available online. The Committee
makes rulings which apply the Code of Conduct and the Rules to
specific fact situations involving lawyers and are published
anonymously as guidance for the profession. The Committee reviews
requests for rulings by the members as well as complaints brought
forward by the public that do not appear to raise conduct issues
but rather "grey area" ethical issues that require discussion.
