LAW CORPORATION GUARANTEE WORKSHEET
(DO NOT RETURN THIS PAGE)
Use this page to calculate the required dollar amounts to be set forth on the Standard Law
Corporation Guarantee (Attachment C-1) or on the Guarantee for Law Corporations Practicing in
Partnership with Other Law Corporations (Attachment C-2).
How to Calculate the Correct Dollar Amounts for a
Law Corporation Guarantee
PER CLAIM: Multiply the number of persons practicing law on behalf of the law corporation* by
$50,000 (e.g. 5 x $50,000 = $250,000), up to a maximum of $500,000. If answer exceeds $500,000,
insert $500,000.
PER CALENDAR YEAR: Multiply the number of persons practicing law on behalf of the law
corporation* by $100,000 (e.g. 5 x $100,000 = $500,000), up to a maximum of $5,000,000. If answer
exceeds $5,000,000, insert $5,000,000.
*How to Determine the Number of Persons
Practicing Law on Behalf of the Law Corporation
“Persons practicing law on behalf of the law corporation” means persons with whom the law
corporation has established a law practice relationship of a continuous nature OR who are held out
by the corporation as being available to practice law on its behalf. This includes all attorneys
practicing in a partnership (including a limited liability partnership, or LLP) or association in which
the corporation practices; employees; “of counsel”; contract attorneys; part-time attorneys and
persons who practice law on behalf of the corporation in other jurisdictions, even if such attorneys
are not admitted to practice law in California.
