A profession is not a business.
It is distinguished by the requirements of extensive formal training and learning,
admission to practice by qualifying licensure,
a code of ethics imposing standards qualitatively and extensively beyond
those that prevail or are tolerated in the marketplace,
a system for discipline of its members for violation of the code of ethics,
a duty to subordinate financial reward to social responsibility, and, notably,
an obligation on its own members, even in nonprofessional matters,
to conduct themselves as members of
a learned, disciplined, and honorable occupation.

The Collaborative difference
Lawyers Collaborative is a full service law firm staffed by a team of seasoned general counsel
and trial lawyers who advise the Collaborative's individual, family, and business clients
in all kinds of legal matters. These are lawyers' lawyers, working as a team
who have “been there, done that.”

Indeed, the three Staff General Counsel resident in the Providence office as of Nov 1, 2008
have almost 100 years' of varied legal experience. This page has more information about
those currently serving as Staff General Counsel.

When representation is required in Court, or whenever Staff General Counsel otherwise
believe it is in the best interest of the client to have expert advice in a particular field,
Staff General Counsel will, at no additional charge, work together with a specialist
from the Collaborative's Roster of carefully screened, independent lawyers and
allied professionals.
Hon. Charles Breitel
former chief chief judge, New York Court of Appeals,
Matter of Freeman, 34 N.Y.2d 1, 7 (1974).
