In Wisconsin, what is the penalty for practising law without a licence?
Answered for: Wisconsin
757.30 Penalty for practicing without license. 757.30(1) (1) Every person, who without having first obtained a license to practice law as an attorney of a court of record in this state, as provided by law, practices law within the meaning of sub. (2) , or purports to be licensed to practice law as an attorney within the meaning of sub. (3) , shall be fined not less than $50 nor more than $500 or imprisoned not more than one year in the county jail or both, and in addition may be punished as for a contempt.
The Wisconsin section sets a fine, possible jail, and contempt. It reaches two things: practising law within the meaning of subsection (2), and purporting to be licensed within the meaning of subsection (3).
This answer is true in Wisconsin and nowhere else on this site. Another jurisdiction is another answer, or an honest gap: see what has been read for Wisconsin.
