• Comments Received for APR 28 Regs - Non-Lawyer Practice Commission Regulations

Purpose: The Practice of Law Board has suggested a new rule, APR 28, which would authorize qualified and trained nonlaywers to provide legal assistance to the public in specific defined and authorized areas of law under careful regulation. GR 25 provides that one of the purposes of the Practice of Law Board is to make recommendations regarding the circumstances under which nonlaywers may be involved in the delivery of certain types of legal and law-related services. This rule is the Board’s fulfillment of that purpose.
