Hello,
I am a partner in a law firm in India. We get a lot of litigation in which clients are citizens of Australia but have matrimonial disputes in India. Such cases are on steady rise in Chandigarh, Punjab and Haryana region in India. Our law firm wants to get Australian talent - both lawyers and interns - to join our law firm.
According to our law, Australian lawyers can not practice here so we want them to advise us about Australian Family law.
My question is - Can we hire Australian law interns and lawyers, only for their legal opinion, according to Australian Bar Rules and Regulations?
Thanks
