I agree.
Most of the times lawyers will violate any rule to achieve the result they want.
In a way they circumvent the law. Thus often times law has nothing to do with ethics. In fact a lawful thing to do is often very very unethical.

Not at all.
Laws and ethical codes are just two different sets of rules, operating on different levels and with different enforcement mechanisms.
But the general structure of the rules sets are the same, and many ethical codes are also enforced as a matter of law in administrative or licensure settings.

No, actually Lawyers have fine lines they have to walk to stay within "your rights as well as their's." That is if they want to STAY lawyers.
