Rule 44 governs the licensing and professional conduct of attorneys, i.e., who is allowed to practice law and how they must behave. Legal paraprofessionals are not licensed to practice law themselves and work under the supervision of a lawyer. Because Rule 44 targets the practice of law by licensed practitioners, it does not apply directly to paraprofessionals. The supervising attorney is responsible for ensuring any work done by a paraprofessional complies with the rule, while the paraprofessional performs tasks within the attorney’s oversight and cannot independently practice law or provide legal advice. So the best answer is that Rule 44 is not applicable to legal paraprofessionals.
