Minnesota's Uniform Conveyancing Blanks Act (Minn. Stat. § 507.09) and related rules govern the preparation and use of real estate conveyancing documents. Which of the following is NOT a requirement or correct statement regarding the preparation of conveyancing documents by Minnesota real estate licensees?

Correct Answer

C) A Minnesota real estate licensee may draft custom purchase agreements with non-standard legal clauses without attorney involvement, provided the client consents in writing

Drafting custom legal language or non-standard clauses constitutes the unauthorized practice of law, which is prohibited regardless of client consent.

Answer Options
A
Licensees may complete approved standardized conveyancing forms approved by the Minnesota Department of Commerce and the State Bar Association
B
Documents that deviate from approved standard forms or involve complex legal issues must be prepared by a licensed Minnesota attorney
C
A Minnesota real estate licensee may draft custom purchase agreements with non-standard legal clauses without attorney involvement, provided the client consents in writing
D
The use of approved standardized forms by licensees does not constitute the unauthorized practice of law under Minnesota rules
