EC 1-2. The public should be protected from those who are not qualified to be lawyers by

reason of a deficiency in education or moral standards or of other relevant factors but who

nevertheless seek to practice law. To assure the maintenance of high moral and educational

standards of the legal profession, lawyers should affirmatively assist courts and other appropriate

bodies in promulgating, enforcing, and improving requirements for admission to the bar. In like

manner, the bar has a positive obligation to aid in the continued improvement of all phases of

pre-admission and post-admission legal education.
