There is a demand for a special relationship between a lawyer and his client, that relationship is one of confidentiality, trust, comfort, and proximity. This is the ultimate reason for the existence of this noble ancient profession.

The lawyer is an independent professional, who uses the enacted legislation and the law as his tools of trade in order to achieve his clients’ legitimate and fair claims.
