State court officials have approved new rules authorizing lawyers outside the state to practice in New York on a temporary basis and to allow foreign lawyers to register as in-house counsel. The rules take effect Dec. 30.
Under 22 NYCRR Part 523, a lawyer licensed in another U.S. state or a foreign jurisdiction may provide legal services in New York on a temporary basis in certain circumstances, including on matters on which an admitted New York attorney assumes joint responsibility; a proceeding where the lawyer or a person the lawyer is assisting is authorized to appear; ADR proceedings where pro hac vice admission is not required; or work related to the lawyer’s practice in a jurisdiction where the lawyer is admitted.
