The profession of a lawyer offers a career that is both honorable and lucrative. To one who is imbued with humanitarian ideals, it affords abundant opportunity of assisting the poor and the needy to preserve their civil rights. The lawyer who guides his conduct by the principles of Christian faith regards his professional activities as a means of defending and proclaiming the unchangeable law of God, of which every just civil law is a participation. Some of those whom the Church has raised to the honor of the altar were lawyers, such as St. Ives, the patron of lawyers, and St. Thomas More, defender of the faith and martyr. More recent is Contardo Ferrini, who taught law in a secular university, and the cause of whose canonization is now in progress. Evidently, there is no incompatibility between an active and successful law career and an exemplary Catholic life.
