Akron Bar Ass'n v. Bojonell

Ohio Supreme Court
Akron Bar Ass'n v. Bojonell, 88 Ohio St. 3d 154 (Ohio 2000)
724 N.E.2d 401
Cook, Douglas, Moyer, Pfeifer, Resnick, Stratton, Sweeney

Akron Bar Ass'n v. Bojonell

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

As we have previously held in a matter very similar to this, representing others by advising them of their rights and communicating on their behalf to adverse parties about settlements of causes of action constitutes the practice of law. Cincinnati Bar Assn. v. Cromwell (1998), 82 Ohio St.3d 255, 695 N.E.2d 243.

Respondent is hereby enjoined from engaging in any further activities that might constitute the unauthorized practice of law. Cost are taxed to respondent.

Judgment accordingly.

Moyer, C.J., Douglas, Resnick, F.E. Sweeney, Pfeifer, Cook and Lundberg Stratton, JJ., concur.
