All claims against the state of Connecticut are defended by the office of the attorney general. A claimant need not be represented by an attorney. No person shall be permitted to represent a claimant except attorneys admitted to practice law before the courts of the state of Connecticut and who are in good standing before those courts. Student interns with the counsel of the claimant or the attorney general's office may be permitted to appear before the claims commissioner in any hearing or motion before the claims commissioner, but his representation must be accompanied by an attorney duly authorized and qualified.
