Our Commitment to Professionalism
Graduates of and students at Liberty University School of Law shall reflect the character of Christ in their professional life. They will strive to be courageous and compassionate Champions for Christ in the study and practice of law.
They will demonstrate the highest degree of honesty, integrity, and strength of character. They will study and practice law ethically and with excellence, and they will treat the profession, and their role in it, with honor and respect.
They will serve and care for their clients, treating each with compassion, dignity, and respect while advocating with good judgment. They will demonstrate civility, courtesy, respect, and professional decorum toward the court, judicial staff, opposing counsel, their colleagues, and everyone they encounter during their practice of law. They will maintain a professional appearance and behavior commensurate with their status as a professional and as an officer of the court.
They will, first and foremost, always seek to grow and deepen their relationship with Christ, recognizing that apart from Christ we can do nothing (John 15:5). They will care for their own well-being, and thus their ability to uphold the principles of the practice of law, by seeking help when needed and by adopting practices and disciplines that cultivate health and balance spiritually, emotionally, occupationally, intellectually, physically, and socially.
