An experimental Utah regulatory program allows non-lawyers to practice law.
Legal-tech companies are using it to automate work that a lawyer would normally do.
The new regulations also let non-lawyers own and invest in law firms, raising some ethics concerns.
An experiment that could fundamentally reshape the legal industry is underway in Utah.
In 2020, Utah became the first state to let non-lawyers provide legal services through a so-called regulatory sandbox program.
The program lets companies experiment with different models of practicing law in a sandbox overseen by the Utah Supreme Court. It was designed to spur innovation and increase access to justice by lowering the regulatory barriers to practicing law, according to the Office of Legal Services Innovation, which reports to the state s Supreme Court.
Warrington Hospital A DRUNK man who was caught carrying a knife at Warrington Hospital has been spared jail. Daniel Ireland was found in possession of the lock knife after abusing hospital staff while under the influence of alcohol during an incident on February 9 this year. The 37-year-old was handed a four-month imprisonment suspended for a year at Warrington Magistrates Court last month after admitting possession of a bladed article in a public place and drunk and disorderly behaviour. This custodial sentence was suspended due to the defendant, who is also known as Daniel Wilde, having ‘taken steps to tackle his alcohol addiction’.
