Thread: Attorney to Attorney question

Hi-

I own a company, and we employ an attorney in California (we are based in california). We need to start filing cases in Nevada, Florida, Arizona and Colorado.

I have looked at multi-jurisdictional applications, but it seems to me they all require an attorney in state to file. Anyone have experience filing in multiple jurisdictions? Advice on how to do this?

Thanks,
Jason

Whenever I have dealt with a company that needs to file in another state, I recommend finding legal counsel there to do it. Although I could waive in for a case, I always worry that there may be rules that I don't know about that may come into play (for example, some states have franchise fees, special rules for licensing, etc). I know Colorado law, but ask me about another state and your guess would be as good as mine!

Other attorneys may disagree, but I'd rather be sure that the company I represent is doing it right the first time.
