CALIFORNIA LAWYERS ASSOCIATION CODE OF CONDUCT
The California Lawyers Association ("CLA") is a member-driven, mission-focused organization dedicated to the professional advancement of attorneys practicing law in the State of California. Established in 2018, CLA is a nonprofit, voluntary organization, and the new home of the Sections of the State Bar of California and the California Young Lawyers Association. Our extensive membership represents the vast diversity of California’s legal community and the various areas of law practiced throughout the state.
We thrive at the intersection of innovation and dedication—delivering high-quality educational programs, events, and resources, and continuously seeking new ways to expand our offerings. We are committed to fostering excellence and fellowship throughout the California legal community, and the Sections enable CLA to help members maintain expertise in their various fields of law, expand their professional contacts, and serve the legal profession, the public and the legal system.
As part of this commitment, we expect all CLA members to observe and promote the highest standards of ethical and professional behavior, including faithfully abiding by the laws, regulations, and rules applicable to the member’s profession. Additionally, we expect the CLA Board of Representatives, CLA Corporate Officers, Section Officers, Section Executive Committee members, Section Advisors, and other Section volunteers (collectively, "Volunteers") to demonstrate ethical conduct by acting in the manner described in this Code of Conduct.
