I have represented A in a number of matters over twenty years.

In 2006, A wanted to get married to B who was already
married and wanted a divorce. I represented B in an
uncontested divorce and obtained a judgment of divorce. In
2010, B came to my office and said that A, who had moved to
Florida, was suing her for divorce. I researched the issue
briefly and advised B that she would have to get an attorney
in Florida to represent her. I heard nothing more from B.

The Florida divorce was dismissed because A failed to
establish residency. A recently sent me copies of a New York
divorce action commenced by B and asked that I represent him.

May I represent A in the divorce brought by B?

Thank you for your comments.
