          Abstract

          Este trabajo persigue identificar cuál es el estatuto ético-profesional vigente del abogado en Chile. Concluye que, salvo por el tribunal competente para conocer de las reclamaciones ético-profesionales, ese estatuto es el mismo tanto para los abogados afiliados a algún colegio como para aquellos que no lo están y está constituido (a) respecto de los deberes ético-profesionales, por los contenidos normativos vigentes a febrero de 1981 del Código de Ética del Colegio de Abogados aprobado en 1948; (b) respecto a las sanciones susceptibles de ser aplicadas al abogado que infringe esos deberes, por los contenidos normativos vigentes a febrero de 1981 de la Ley del Colegio de Abogados N° 4.409, y (c) respecto del procedimiento al cual someter las reclamaciones ético-profesionales, por el juicio sumario y demás reglas del D.L. N° 3.621/1981. Las conclusiones alcanzadas a propósito de la abogacía son luego proyectadas a las demás profesiones que requieren de grado universitario. Se plantea que el estatuto ético-profesional de cada una de ellas está constituido por los contenidos normativos vigentes a febrero de 1981 del código de ética dictado por su respectivo colegio profesional (deberes) y por la ley orgánica de ese colegio (sanciones), así como por las normas procesales fijadas por el D.L. N° 3.621. Finalmente, plantea que el denominado "Código de Ética Profesional" del Colegio de Abogados de Chile de 2011, así como cualquier otra regulación con pretensión de regulación ético-profesional dictada por cualquier colegio profesional después de febrero de 1981, sólo tiene fuerza jurídica para efectos de responsabilidad civil en tanto su contenido corresponda al lex artis y por integrar los contratos de abogacía de los afiliados.

          Translated abstract

          This essay seeks to identify the rules governing the professional responsibility of lawyers currently effective in Chile. It arrives to the conclusion that, except for the courts with jurisdiction over professional responsibility complaints, such rules are the same for lawyers who are members of a professional bar as well as for those who are not, and such rules are: (a) regarding professional duties, the normative content effective in February, 1981 of the Code of Ethics enacted by the Lawyers Bar in 1948; (b) regarding the sanctions to be imposed to the lawyer infringing those duties, the normative content effective in february, 1981 of Law 4,409 on the Professional Bar of Lawyers; and (c) regarding the procedure under which lawyers' professional responsibility complaints are to be decided, the juicio sumario and the other rules of D.L. N° 3.621 . Conclusions achieved in connection with the legal professlon are thereafter projected to the other professlons for whlch a unlverslty degree ¡s requlred, proposlng that the professlonal responsibility rules for each of them correspond to the normative content effective in February, 1981 of both the code of ethics enacted by its bar organization (duties) and the law pursuant to which such professional bar was organized (sanctions), as well as the procedural rules of D.L. N° 3.621 . Finally, this essay concludes that the so-called "Code of Professional Ethics" enacted by Colegio de Abogados de Chile in 2011, as well as any other self-pretending professional responsibility regulation enacted by any other bar organization subsequent to february 1981, only has legal force for civil-responsibility purposes insofar as it contains the lex artis and by integrating the legal services contracts of its members.
