Beware Corporate Counsel's Unauthorized Practice

The fact that an attorney's license to practice law is state based, and does not extend beyond the geographic boundaries of that state, frequently conflicts with another reality: the interstate and international nature of law practice. This issue of unauthorized practice of law is especially relevant for in-house corporate lawyers, whose clients' businesses are seamless and non-geographical in nature.

Zuckerman Spaeder partner C. Evan Stewart writes: Charles Caleb Colton once famously observed that "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery."

The legal profession has come a long way when it comes to in-house counsel blowing the whistle, says attorney C. Evan Stewart. Not only have we loosened our ethical obligations to clients, we have created the means by which we now can sue clients for discharge, using privileged communications against them. This, in Stewart's view, is a slippery slide away from the ideals of zealous client representation, based upon the principle of clients' absolute confidence in their attorneys' duty of confidentiality.

The SEC's Setbacks in Litigation
