	Model Code of Professional Responsibility
		Preparation of advertisements and professional articles for lay publications5 and participation in seminars, lectures, and civic programs should be motivated by a desire to educate the public to an awareness of legal needs and to provide information relevant to the selection of the most appropriate counsel rather than to obtain publicity for particular lawyers.
		The essence of the professional judgment of the lawyer is his educated ability to relate the general body and philosophy of law to a specific legal problem of a client; and thus, the public interest will be better served if only lawyers are permitted to act in matters involving professional judgment.
		The professional judgment of a lawyer should be exercised, within the bounds of the law, solely for the benefit of his client and free of compromising influences and loyalties.

		Code of Ethics No. 21, supra note 116, at 357.] Jones' use of the word "secrecy," which was later adopted by the ABA, is the foundation of the contemporary lawyer's duty of confidentiality, which extends beyond the reach of the common-law based attorney-client privilege.
		Code of Ethics No. 47, supra note 116, at 361.] In one provision slightly reminiscent of Sharswood's altruistic view of compensation but probably more derivative of southern notions of family and society, the Code states that lawyers should not generally charge for services to the family of a deceased attorney.

	Ethics Opinions - FORMAL OPINION NO. 1983-71
		Although there is apparent widespread misconception, the ABA Model Code of Professional Responsibility, (ABA code) like sister state rules and court opinions, is not binding in California although it may be persuasive in those instances where there is no controlling rule of professional conduct, statute or Court ruling in California.
		The ABA code, if otherwise applicable, would be subject to the public policy of the state of California and reasonable inferences which may be drawn from existing California Rules of Professional Conduct, statutes and court rulings.
		The removal of all references to the ABA code in the 1975 version of Rule 1-100 by the Board of Governors and the California Supreme Court can only reasonably mean that the ABA code is not intended to be looked to as having any special significance to California lawyers.
