[Under the Radar]

So you're not a lawyer. You're just someone who's pretending to be a lawyer. That's called unauthorized practice of law and carries criminal penalties in most states, civil contempt in others.

He can advise his wife on the law without holding a bar card. He would encounter trouble trying to represent someone else, however, if he weren't licensed. However, I bet he knows more about this than you and I both. :^)

See post #118. He held himself out as her "counsel" ("calling counsel" to be precise) to law enforcement. That's a no-no:

He is claiming to be a practicing lawyer right on this thread. And he himself said he spoke with the police during his wife's interrogation and said "It is surprising how courteous they became when they were presented with her calling counsel. "

Unless, of course, "calling counsel" is more of his hairsplitting Clintonnian speak.
