ethics & integrity (RSC)
Ethical Channel
At FORTUNY LAWYERS, ethics is not just a value—it is the foundation of everything we do. Acting with integrity generates trust, reinforces our reputation, and serves as a true mark of distinction that our clients and the wider legal community deeply appreciate.
“Confidentiality between lawyer and client is the very essence of a fair judicial system.”We expect all our professionals to uphold the highest ethical standards, guided by a strong sense of responsibility and a firm commitment to doing what is right. To support this commitment, our management has established a comprehensive Code of Ethics, which defines the core values and principles that govern our firm’s actions.
— Edward Coke (1552-1634) Influential English jurist
“A lawyer must be a more secure confidant than a priest and more discreet than a doctor.”
— Henry Lord Brougham (1778-1868) British lawyer
Code Of Ethics
This Code serves as a practical guide for all members of our team—including partners, managers, employees, and collaborators—outlining the expected conduct in situations that may involve ethical dilemmas or legal uncertainty. Any breach of the Code is regarded as a serious offence and may lead to disciplinary measures, especially in cases where individuals fail to act or report misconduct despite being aware of it.
“Prudence is knowing the difference between what can be said and what must be kept silent.”We view the Ethics Channel as a valuable opportunity to strengthen our organisation. It helps us identify behaviour that conflicts with our ethical standards and offers a way to resolve any doubts that may arise in complex or ambiguous situations.
— Cicero (106 B.C. – 43 B.C.)
“A lawyer without discretion is like a doctor who reveals his patients’ illnesses.”
