What is the name of your state? Nevada
I have a child custody case that was heard in Pro Per in the state of California. I won this case and since then have moved to Nevada with the knowledge of the state of Ca.
This year I applied to work for a lawyer here in the State of Nevada and was asked questions on my legal knowledge. I went into detail with this Lawyer regarding the case that was heard in Ca and why I had interest to work in the legal field . The Law practice deals with Family Law among other things.
I was offered a postion by the Atty about one month later, and I had to turn it down because I had been offered employment by a company in that time.
Jump to present date.
I recieve a letter from this atty stating that the firm is now handling my child custody case and representing the father of my child. Stated was that they knew that it was my name that he brought up and that it was decided that they would take on this case? Mind you the father as well does not live in this state.
Ethical ? NO ... that is a given but would this show a conflict of interest? since I had told the atty in detail about my case since this is the ONLY legal knowledge that I have. My resume does not even represent that I have any legal background.
I have all corrospondence with this atty. as well as seperate interactions with her on purchasing some items from her from an online adv. and other things. Would this be grounds to tell the judge when the case does go before them to let them know of the fact that she knows me already and had details of the case??
Thanks in Advance .
