As you all know, I am a big proponent of alternative advertising for lawyers. [See my previous post on including Paris Hilton is an alternative billing advertisement campaign.]
I think lawyers should put content on line so that average citizens can educate themselves about issues and their rights. Here is a link to an ABA article which discusses in detail the issues facing state bar associations in dealing with the advent of blogs and web sites in the face of lawyer advertising rules. As with the case of Ben Cowgill, many state rules are grossly outdated and fail to even contemplate the advent of the Internet.
