A, B, and D all seem like reasonable activities for professionals in their respective fields. But C? That's a big no-no. Lawyering is serious business, folks.

This is a tricky question, but I'm leaning towards B. Designing an estate plan seems to cross the line into legal advice, even for a CPA.

But what about option A? Giving tax advice seems like it could be within the scope of a trust officer's duties.

I think the correct answer is C. Drafting a will using printed forms is clearly an unauthorized practice of law, as it involves the creation of a legal document without the expertise of a licensed attorney.
