This foreword addresses "the need to uphold and maintain a high level of integrity in both the legal profession and in government." The author discusses the roles of self-regulation and ethical standards for ensuring integrity in the legal and governmental fields. "Public trust and confidence in lawyers and government officials alike require that members of each group strive to maintain the highest ethical standards. This issue of the Urban Law Journal contributes to our thinking about the need for and problems of preserving both government and professional integrity."
