A practice founded on ethics.
At DUBÉ LATREILLE, professional ethics is not a constraint — it is the foundation of every decision we make for our clients.
Each of us is solely responsible for the ethical shape he has given to his own life.
At DUBÉ LATREILLE, we recognize that our firm's reputation and professional image depend on the trust and respect accorded to us by the legal community. That is why we adhere to the most rigorous professional ethical practices, applying the Code of Professions, the Code of Ethics for Lawyers, and integrating best practices recognized by the Barreau du Québec.
What guides our practice
Confidentiality
Upholding professional secrecy is fundamental to our mission.
We ensure that all information entrusted to us remains strictly confidential, and we implement rigorous measures to ensure its protection, both legally and technologically.
This commitment extends to all our internal processes and the use of digital tools, with a focus on security, prudence, and responsibility.
A clear relationship, free of surprises
We believe that a healthy professional relationship is built on a clear understanding of costs.
From the outset of our engagement, we define our fee arrangements with you in a transparent and accessible manner. We keep you informed of any developments that may impact costs, so you can make informed decisions at every stage.
Our fees are fair, reasonable, and proportionate to the services rendered.
Informing you at the right time
We prioritize open, regular, and proactive communication.
This means we:
- keep you continuously informed about the progress of your case;
- anticipate issues and risks;
- clearly explain your options, taking your objectives into account.
Our role is not limited to answering your questions; it also involves actively supporting you in decision-making.
Preserving independence and loyalty
We implement strict mechanisms to prevent, identify, and manage any actual, potential, or apparent conflict of interest.
Before accepting a mandate, we conduct rigorous checks to ensure our ability to act with complete independence and exclusive loyalty to our clients.
When necessary, we promptly inform you of any situation that could affect this independence and take appropriate measures to protect your interests.
Access to justice
We recognize our social responsibility to promote access to justice. We adapt our approach to each client's unique situation, whether they are an SME or an individual.
Excellence through continuous improvement
The law evolves, and so do we.
We are committed to continuously maintaining and developing our legal, technological, and industry expertise to provide services that meet contemporary challenges.
This culture of continuous training directly contributes to:
- the quality of our advice;
- innovation in our practice;
- the rigor of our legal analysis;
Rooted in the highest standards
Our firm rigorously applies the standards established by the two main codes governing the legal profession in Quebec, as well as the best practices recognized by the Barreau du Québec.
Professional Code
Quebec legislative framework governing the practice of all regulated professions, including law.
Lawyers' Code of Ethics
Specific rules for the legal profession, adopted under the Professional Code and administered by the Barreau du Québec.
Beyond principles, our ethics are tangibly reflected in every case we handle. They reflect our vision of law: a demanding, human-centered practice resolutely focused on our clients' interests.
