IT has always been respected that even the worst criminals require legal representation. Lawyers defend these criminals to uphold the fundamental principle of due process and ensure that every accused person receives a fair trial. There is no doubt about this.

The primary purpose of defending even the worst criminals is to ensure that the principle of due process is rigorously applied. This means that every accused person, regardless of the severity of their alleged crimes, receives a fair trial. Yet, it is crucial to understand that when lawyers defend those accused of serious crimes, they are not endorsing or condoning the alleged actions of their clients. Rather, they are fulfilling their role in the judicial processes.

However, it’s equally important to draw a clear distinction between providing a legal defense and actively participating in or facilitating criminal activities. While defending an accused person is a necessary part of the legal profession, lawyers who aid or abet illegal activities cross a critical ethical line and violate the lawyers’ code of conduct.

Clearly, the active participation of lawyers in criminal activities undermines the very justice system that they were sworn to uphold.
