Only the advertising rule is implicated, because drafting legal papers is allowed if the fee is disclosed.
Only Judiciary Law §484 is implicated, because foreign-language advertising is never regulated.
Both Executive Law §135-b / 19 NYCRR §182.1 advertising limits and unauthorized-practice rules under Judiciary Law §484 are implicated.
No issue exists if the notary later refuses to notarize the documents.
Correct Answer
C. Both Executive Law §135-b / 19 NYCRR §182.1 advertising limits and unauthorized-practice rules under Judiciary Law §484 are implicated.
AI Explanation
This is a two-rule interaction problem. Executive Law §135-b and 19 NYCRR §182.1 restrict foreign-language advertising that falsely suggests attorney status, while Judiciary Law §484 bars a non-attorney from preparing deeds, wills, and similar legal instruments for others. Importantly, one violation does not cancel out the other; the same conduct can trigger both advertising and unauthorized-practice problems.
