(2) If a restriction mentioned in subsection (1) is limited to a particular branch of the legal profession or persons who practise in a particular style of legal practice, the restriction applies only to the extent that the multi-disciplinary partnership carries on the business of that branch of the legal profession or that particular style of legal practice.
(3) An advertisement by a multi-disciplinary partnership about the provision of services that include legal services is, for the purposes of a disciplinary proceeding against an Australian legal practitioner, taken to have been authorised by each legal practitioner partner of the multi-disciplinary partnership.
