lawyer under subsection 1 of NRS 38.510 applies to a collaborative lawyer representing a party with or without fee.
2. After a collaborative law process
concludes, another lawyer in a law firm with which a collaborative lawyer who
is disqualified under subsection 1 of NRS
38.510 is associated may represent a party without fee in the collaborative
matter or a matter related to the collaborative matter if:
(a) The party has an annual income that qualifies
the party for free legal representation under the criteria established by the
law firm for free legal representation;
(b) The collaborative law participation agreement
so provides; and
(c) The collaborative lawyer is isolated from any
participation in the collaborative matter or a matter related to the
collaborative matter through procedures within the law firm which are
reasonably calculated to isolate the collaborative lawyer from such
participation.
