52 • FLORIDA DEFENDER | Spring 2019 that we all must follow that regulate the
implementation of those qualities, but
the oath goes much deeper than the
written rules that the Bar enforces.

As advocates for potentially opposite
truths, it is easy to become jaded and
only see the system through the eyes
of your position. It is human nature to
form opinions, and it is a lawyer’s nature
to feel very strongly about issues and
positions that they are passionate about.
Sometimes, when a prosecutor feels
passionate about his or her position, and
a defense attorney about theirs, civility
and respect are neglected. Above the job
titles that we possess, we are lawyers.
Although some of us may be higher
ranked than others, or surpass others by
years of experience, we are equals.

When you consider the justice

Defense and the Prosecution play a vital
role. Without either our justice system
would fail. This is why it is integral that
we, as officers of the court, must go
above and beyond to uphold the oath,
even when it concerns your adversary.

In this profession, time is valuable.
That is something we can all agree
on. For this reason, preparation is key.
The mad scramble from attorneys who
prepare for court last minute is incon-

weeks or months between court dates.
