SPS. EDUARDO AND TERESITA GARCIA v. ATTY. ROLANDO S. BALA
PANGANIBAN, J.
The practice of law is considered a privilege bestowed by the State on those who show that they possessed and continue to possess the legal qualifications for it.[16] Indeed, lawyers are expected to maintain at all times a high standard of legal proficiency and morality, including honesty, integrity and fair dealing.[17] They must perform their fourfold duty to society, the legal profession, the courts and their clients, in accordance with the values and norms of the legal profession as embodied in the Code of Professional Responsibility.[18]
