Nick: "(...) Shut up! You're a nobody online like everybody else, but you're even more of a nobody. That's legal advice, baby. Take it in vain."
"I am giving 100% legal advice for all my clients, and this is protected by attorney-client privilege. And the Minnesota Board of Law Examiners, they actually approved and demanded that I say this specifically. That's what happened. (...) They've got this conundrum right now, some dork is telling them that I'm holding myself out as a lawyer representing clients, because I say, hey, I'm Nick Rekieta of Rekieta Law, a small law firm in central Minnesota. Those are all true statements, right? Nick Rekieta of Rekieta Law. And I am a lawyer. I'm not currently licensed to practice in Minnesota because my license is suspended, but I am a licensed attorney. I am licensed, but my license is suspended. I am not disbarred. My license is not gone or obliterated in any way. It's just on suspension. So they're telling me that they have a problem with me saying I'm a lawyer. I'm holding myself out as a lawyer. It's like, well, that's really interesting, because if I'm not a lawyer, if I'm not a lawyer, then the model rules of professional or Minnesota rules of professional conduct for lawyers cannot apply to me. It's like, if I'm not a lawyer, you can't hold me responsible under the rules. And if I am a lawyer, then I'm telling the truth. So if I'm bound by your rules, then I am a lawyer. I do not represent myself as licensed, but this is a weird artifact of how they do it. You can't apply the rules of professional conduct to non-lawyers. It doesn't work."
