Professional Ethics and Moral Integrity

Having personally and recently witnessed Judge Marc Amos in Court, I found his professional ethics and moral integrity not only admirable, but a blessing to our city and society. A strong family man, attorney and judge, he sits in a position of power in humility, holding high principles in, both, up...holding the law and our court's value system; yet, in doing so, while, simultaneously, offering the upmost mercy and grace for humanity. While not having had Judge Amos ' personal representation as a lawyer either, I would venture to say, having witnessed his efforts and character in Court Session to uphold, both, law and grace, he would be the same as a lawyer as he is a judge and person, one to treat you as he would want to be treated, justly, with honor.
