Bob is hired by Carol to collect outstanding balances owed to her by her customers. However, Bob is not an attorney and cannot file a lawsuit against those who don't pay. Bob hires Mike, who is licensed to practice law, to help him file a lawsuit against those who don't pay. What is Mike?

Answer:

A sub-agent

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Mike who was hired by Bob is licensed to practice law, which would help him file a lawsuit against those who don't pay the outstanding balances owed, he is a sub-agent.

A sub-agent in legal law is someone who performs a fiduciary duty and incurs the same liabilities in regard to his immediate employers, like the sole principal.
