Attorney Audrey worked for the State X Transportation Agency that set taxicab fares in various cities within State X. State X Transportation Agency’s rules required taxicab companies to submit information about their costs and operating practices, which State X Transportation Agency was prohibited from disclosing to the public. Attorney Audrey left State X Transportation Agency a year ago and joined Law Firm ABC, a private law firm. One of the partners at Law Firm ABC now wishes to accept the representation of a ride-sharing service that competes with taxicab companies in one of the cities. Information about the costs and operating practices of taxicab companies could be used by the ride-sharing service to the disadvantage of the taxicab companies. What must the Law Firm ABC partner or Attorney Audrey do to enable Law Firm ABC to represent the ride-sharing service?

Bramazon, a multinational corporation with headquarters in the United States, is involved in wine making and distribution around the world. Bramazon employs an attorney in the role of general counsel who supervises several lawyer employees licensed in the state where the corporation is headquartered. Because Bramazon wants to expand its presence in a foreign country, the attorney has hired as a new employee a foreign lawyer licensed only in that country. The foreign lawyer is a member in good standing of the legal profession in that country and is subject to regulation by its disciplinary authority. The foreign lawyer has now moved to the United States and has established a continuous and systematic presence in the state where the corporation is headquartered. The state permits foreign lawyers who complete a master’s degree to take the bar exam, but the foreign lawyer has not applied to become licensed as a lawyer in the state. The foreign lawyer works on Bramazon’s operations of growing grapes in the foreign country and exporting them to the United States for processing. The foreign lawyer does not work on legal matters involving US law. Is the attorney subject to discipline for employing a foreign lawyer who practices in the state without being licensed there?
