Abstract

This article analyzes both the common features and the features that distinguish the categories of «law» and «morality» primarily through the prism of the specifics of the legal status of a lawyer and the lawyer's activity as a whole. The positions of scientists regarding the definition of the relationship between these categories are analyzed. Attention is focused on the fact that most scientists consider such a relationship through the prism of the complementarity of the institutions of law and morality as regulators of social relations.
 Within the framework of this article, the relationship between the categories «law» and «morality» was investigated precisely through the prism of the lawyer's professional activity. A conclusion is drawn according to which, in the process of lawyer activity, there is a coincidence (combination) of legal and purely moral aspects (the norms of law and morality are inextricably linked), and such activity by its nature should be perceived precisely through the prism of morality, taking into account the special role of moral principles for the profession of a lawyer (a lawyer should proceed from a deeper understanding of the categories «justice», «justice», «honor», «dignity», «good faith», «responsibility», etc. both in carrying out his professional activities and in everyday life).
 Attention is drawn to the fact that a lawyer in any of his activities, including in everyday life, must first of all strictly observe the moral duties imposed on him by his special status (his profession), which, in combination with legal ones, embody his a professional duty, the failure of which entails disciplinary responsibility.
 In order to achieve the set goal and reveal the stipulated tasks, the authors used the methods characteristic of legal science, and the research itself was conducted using primarily systemic-structural and comparative-legal methods, as well as the dialectical method of learning legal reality.
