PREAMBLE: Statement of Purpose

As society becomes more complex, the delivery of legal services likewise becomes more complex. The public rightly expects that lawyers, and licensed legal paraprofessionals (''LLPs''), in their practice of law, and judges, in the performance of their duties, will continue their professional development throughout their legal careers. The purpose of mandatory continuing legal and judicial education requirements is to promote and sustain competence and professionalism and to ensure that lawyers, LLPs, and judges remain current on the law, law practice management, and technology in our rapidly changing society.
