6.05. An advocate shall ensure that a partnership or joint-stock company within which he engages in his professional activities does not use the graphic symbol of the Barreau in connection with its advertising or name unless all the services provided by such partnership or joint-stock company are professional services rendered by advocates.

In the case of a partnership or joint-stock company which provides the professional services of advocates and the services of persons other than advocates with whom the advocate is authorized to engage in his professional activities, the graphic symbol of the Barreau may be used in connection with the name of the partnership or joint-stock company or in its advertising provided the graphic symbol identifying each of the professional orders or organizations to which such persons belong is also used.

Nonetheless, the graphic symbol of the Barreau may always be used in connection with the name of an advocate.
