Your law firm represents John Doe, Executor of the Last Will and Testament of Jane Doe, deceased. At the time of her death, Jane Doe was domiciled in Adams County, Pennsylvania. Under Pennsylvania law, a form Rev. 1500 (PA Inheritance Tax Return - Resident Decedent) must be filed, and any Inheritance Tax due paid, within 9 months from date of death. You are employed as a paralegal. An Associate Attorney in your law firm instructs you to: 1) meet with the Executor; 2) collect all financial information regarding the assets, debts and expenses of the the estate; 3) prepare the required PA Rev. 1500; and 4) sign and file the return with the Register of Wills, Adams County, PA. The Associate Attorney indicates that he trusts your ability and has no intention of reviewing or signing off on your work. Feeling uneasy, you inform the Senior Partner of the situation. The Senior Partner is concerned that the request of the Associate Attorney, if carried out as instructed, may constitute the "Unauthorized Practice of Law." Assignment: Research Pennsylvania Statutory and Case Law as it relates to the "Unauthorized Practice of Law." Apply your research / findings to the scenario above presented.
