The Washington Supreme Court adopted a new rule on June 15 that will allow licensed legal technician to assist civil litigants with tasks that previously could only be handled by a licensed attorney. This move is expected to help people who would not otherwise be able to afford legal assistance. Washington is the first state to adopt this type of rule. You can read the text of the rule online.
Three Washington Supreme Court justices dissented to the rule.
