CO HB1391

Creates a new statute (C.R.S. 6-1-727) prohibiting nonattorneys from providing legal services related to immigration matters for compensation unless licensed to practice law in Colorado or authorized under federal law.

Defines specific prohibited practices including advising on immigration status, selecting benefits or visas, preparing immigration documents, interpreting government forms, demanding advance payments, and representing clients in immigration proceedings.

Prohibits nonattorneys from using titles such as "notario publico," "immigration consultant," or "immigration specialist" in any language or medium, with or without compensation.

Allows nonattorneys to provide language translation, typing services, document retrieval, and other immigration-related services that do not constitute the practice of law, and permits supervised work by nonattorney assistants under licensed attorneys.

Amends the notary public statute to add deceptive trade practices under section 6-1-727 as a prohibited conduct, requiring non-attorney notaries advertising in non-English languages to display a specific statutory notice about their limitations.
