Celebrating Alexis Andrews: Her Swearing-In Ceremony and Commitment to the Lawyer’s Oath
The Lawyer’s Oath: A Promise to Serve with Integrity
As part of the swearing-in, Alexis took the State of Michigan’s Lawyer’s Oath, a solemn promise to uphold the principles of justice, honesty, and dedication to the legal profession. This oath is not merely a formality but a powerful declaration of the ethical standards and responsibilities that every attorney must carry throughout their career. Here’s the full oath that Alexis affirmed: I do solemnly swear (or affirm):
- I will support the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State of Michigan;
- I will maintain the respect due to courts of justice and judicial officers;
- I will not counsel or maintain any suit or proceeding which shall appear to me to be unjust, nor any defense except such as I believe to be honestly debatable under the law of the land;
- I will employ for the purpose of maintaining the causes confided to me such means only as are consistent with truth and honor, and will never seek to mislead the judge or jury by any artifice or false statement of fact or law;
- I will maintain the confidence and preserve inviolate the secrets of my client, and will accept no compensation in connection with my client’s business except with my client’s knowledge and approval;
- I will abstain from all offensive personality, and advance no fact prejudicial to the honor or reputation of a party or witness, unless required by the justice of the cause with which I am charged;
- I will never reject, from any consideration personal to myself, the cause of the defenseless or oppressed, or delay any cause for lucre or malice;
- I will in all other respects conduct myself personally and professionally in conformity with the high standards of conduct imposed upon members of the bar as conditions for the privilege to practice law in this State.
Upholding the “PureLaw” Commitment
At Giroux Pappas, we are deeply committed to practicing law with honesty, integrity, and compassion. The principles outlined in the Lawyer’s Oath resonate with our firm’s “PureLaw” philosophy, which guides everything we do. This philosophy is our promise to our clients that we will always advocate for their best interests with the utmost respect, ethical standards, and unwavering dedication. Alexis embodies these values, and we are confident that she will carry forward our commitment to truth, justice, and compassionate representation.
