Law Society of Upper Canada v. Henryson Emeka Nwakobi, 2013 ONLSHP 140 (CanLII)[1]

[25] We are not offered any definition or description of “integrity of the profession”. In our view it includes honesty, fairness and candour to both a lawyer’s client and a court. It also includes a recognition of and willingness to comply with the rules and by-laws of the profession’s governing body, the Law Society. The respondent was not candid, fair and honest with his client Patrick Cowan or with the court presided over by Justice Rutherford on May 18, 2012.
