Unauthorised Practice of Law

Stop Unauthorised practice of law by the Chartered Accountants and Other accounting professionals.  More and more accounting professionals are drafting and representing their clients in matters of drafting of contract, registration of firms and companies, registration of trusts and cooperative societies. 

Every developed nation recognises that drafting and representing a client before any quasi judicial authority is Practice of Law.  But in India we are being reduced to second grade as the bureaucracy are manipulating lawyers by limiting their fields to the extent of courts.

The Ministry of Company Affairs does not allow a lawyer to register a company and digital signatures of any of the accounting professional is mandatory.  A person who has learnt by distant education, may not hold a degree, does not have knowledge of practice of law yet based only on his experience drafts MoM and AoA and has sanctions to represent his client before ROC.
