When may non lawyers represent clients?

Non-lawyers may represent clients in certain situations, such as in small claims court or administrative hearings where legal representation is not required. They may also assist clients in specific contexts, such as mediation or negotiation, as long as they do not engage in the practice of law or provide legal advice. Additionally, some jurisdictions allow non-lawyers to represent clients in limited scope cases, such as family law matters, under specific regulations. It’s important to check local laws and regulations, as the rules can vary widely.
