• W34373037 abstract "California's Birbrower decision has focused attention on the ability of lawyers to furnish legal services outside their state of admission IT IS a commonplace that business and the economy are increasingly becoming global in structure, with little respect for national boundaries, let alone those of individual states of the United States.(1) Yet licensure to practice law is almost exclusively the province of those individual states. Litigators can avoid the most serious limits this regulatory scheme imposes on practice involving multiple states by obtaining admission pro hac vice from the various courts in which clients wish to have their representation. Transactional lawyers have no similar mechanism to obtain authorization to practice in states where they are not admitted generally, and even litigators frequently provide out-of-court services, either in alternate dispute resolution proceedings or in counseling clients on avoiding litigation or strengthening potential defenses. Even without the benefit of pro hac vice admission, lawyers frequently represent clients in ways that include providing some portion of their legal services with contacts in states where the lawyers are not admitted. The foreign state's law may apply, some or all of the subject matter may be in that state, one or more parties (possibly including the client) may be domiciled there, and some of the work (e.g., interviews or negotiating sessions) may occur there. While these representations are common, there is no explicit authorization for most of them in the governing rules or statutes, and the relevant case law is both extremely fragmentary and often hostile (mildly or severely) to the practices addressed by the particular court. To some extent, lawyers who engage in multistate practice have relied on a combination of custom and the infrequency of challenges to permit continuation of their practices. The leading commentator on the subject has aptly characterized this approach as sneaking around.(2) The attention of the practicing bar has been drawn forcefully to these problems by the California Supreme Court's 1998 decision in Birbrower, Montalbano, Condon & Frank P.C. v. Superior Court (Esquire Business Services Inc.),(3) in which the court held that a New York lawyer's California activities in connection with arbitration of a commercial dispute were the unauthorized practice of law in violation of a California statute, for which the lawyer was thereby precluded from recovering compensation. This was followed by several other significant cases in various jurisdictions, reaching various results on the respective facts at issue. This subject had received scholarly attention,(4) with commentators unanimous in favoring broad freedom for lawyers to engage in practice affecting jurisdictions where they are not licensed. But much of the case law in this area has taken a much more parochial view, a view increasingly at odds with the realities of practice in a globalizing world. The American Bar Association and Fordham University convened a Symposium on Multijurisdictional Practice in March 2000 to examine the issues presented by these tensions. That symposium reached a strong consensus that the ABA should address this issue and take a leadership rule in modernizing the law.(5) The International Association of Defense Counsel and other defense organizations have appointed special committees to develop positions on these issues.(6) This article is intended to alert defense lawyers to these developments and to solicit their input. The present confused state of the law limits the guidance that can be provided for litigators, but this article offers an analysis of some points that do seem clear.
