There absolutely can, and those rules are enforceable. There are fines. All sorts of sanctions are available. If a fine is levied by the law society against a member, or even against a non-member--because again, the law society regulates the area of practice--the law society can go after someone who's not a member, someone who's hanging out a shingle and representing himself as a lawyer or taking money from someone for that reason. The law society can fine them, and if that fine doesn't get paid, the courts can enforce that fine.
