Question : Is it illegal for a criminal lawyer to start his own bail bonds business?
If I ever become an attorney that specializes in criminal defense, I would get one of my long time friends to manage my bail bonds business. That sounds extremely profitable and smart to do. You simply co-own it along with your partner and still manage your own practice full-time.

I was just wondering if this is against the law or the laws of the Bar Association. Perhaps ethics laws or a conflict of interest. ?

Thanks for the responses!
