Paralegal

Category - Ethics

In most states, a non-lawyer paralegal’s name may NOT be included on or provided by which of the following?
  1. Business cards.
  2. Law firm letterhead.
  3. Advertising mailer.
  4. None of the above.
Explanation
Answer: C - Advertising mailer. A majority of states permit the use of business cards for paralegals, and many states permit law firms to list paralegals on their stationary. However, the use of a paralegal’s name in an advertising mailer would be misleading as to the paralegal’s qualifications and ability to practice law. The general guideline is that the use of a paralegal’s name in law firm materials is acceptable if the use is for identification purposes.
