Legal wrongdoings are punishable by fines, imprisonment, and loss of equity. That is the major significance of the change from ethical to legal wrongdoings. An ethical wrongdoing can and most likely will go unpunished.

Because ethical wrongdoings might cost you your profession/career. Legal wrongdoings will cost you your freedom and a big chunk of change.

Ethical codes are enforced by the body that sets them, usually a company or private organization or for a particular profession. Generally, the only penalties for ethical violation are sanction or expulsion by that particular group.
Laws are enforced by the government, and can have more serious penalities for violation.

People can be unethical 24/7, but if being unethical also became unlawful, they just might have to answer for it
