Hiring someone to help a client may subject the attorney who engages the consultant to disciplinary sanctions if the consultant engages in conduct that would violate the Code of Professional Responsibility when performed by a lawyer.

Hiding from potential danger does not provide protection to ostriches, and it will not shield lawyers either.
