Effect of non-disclosure of provision of certain services

    (1)     This section applies if:

        (a)     section 159 applies in relation to a service that is provided to a person who has engaged a multi-disciplinary partnership to provide the service and that the person might reasonably assume to be a legal service; and

        (b)     a disclosure has not been made under that section in relation to the service.
