Clients trust the legal profession with a wide range of important matters, ranging from social and domestic concerns (such as wills, divorce, debts, buying and selling of houses), to consumer and business law (matters of retail, commerce, taxation and intellectual property) and criminal law (the representation and advocacy for clients in the criminal courts). It is therefore essential for individual clients and for society that high standards of professional conduct and service are maintained by legal practitioners. For this reason, the branches of the legal profession — solicitors, barristers and legal executives — are regulated by professional bodies.
