    Disclosure from Nonlawyer (Rule 10-2.2(c)(2), Rules Regulating The Florida Bar)

    Jonathan Rexford told me that he is a nonlawyer and may not give legal advice, cannot tell me what my rights or remedies are, cannot tell me how to testify in court, and cannot represent me in court.

    Rule 10-2.1(h) of the Rules Regulating The Florida Bar defines a paralegal as a person who works under the supervision of a member of The Florida Bar, an out-of-state lawyer engaged in the authorized practice of law in Florida, or a foreign lawyer engaged in the authorized practice of law in Florida and who performs specifically delegated substantive legal work for which the supervising lawyer is responsible. Only persons who meet the definition may call themselves paralegals. Jonathan Rexford informed me that he is not a paralegal as defined by the rule and cannot call himself a paralegal.

    Jonathan Rexford told me that he may only type the factual information provided by me in writing into the blanks on the form. Except for typing, Jonathan Rexford may not tell me what to put in the form and may not complete the form for me. However, if using a form approved by the Supreme Court of Florida, Jonathan Rexford may ask me factual questions to fill in the blanks on the form and may also tell me how to file the form.

    Every document prepared for you will state that it was completed with the assistance of: Jonathan Rexford, Nonlawyer Document Preparer and Florida Notary Public · 772-321-2290 · jonathan@notarynearmenow.com · www.NotaryNearMeNow.com

  • Typing-only notice: The document on this intake is not a Florida Supreme Court approved form. Jonathan Rexford may only type the information you give him in writing, exactly as you write it. Please answer every question in your own words. If a question does not apply to you, leave it blank.
