Section 1 of the bill establishes that if a person, other than a licensed attorney or person authorized under federal law to represent others in immigration matters, engages in certain practices that amount to providing or offering to provide legal advice or legal services in an immigration matter, the person is engaged in a deceptive trade practice. The attorney general or a district attorney may seek civil penalties against the person under the Colorado Consumer Protection Act. Section 2 adds to the notice a notary public must provide in any advertisement of his or her services that the notary is not an immigration consultant.
