I had to send this to the Rules Committee about more onerous Utah Bar rules on advertising:
To Whom It May Concern,
I intensely dislike some law firm ads I see and hear, especially with actors pretending to have been severely injured in an accident. However, I more intensely dislike governmental/bar intrusions into advertising.
It is pathetic and ridiculous that the powerhouse lawyers and firms, which are able to place themselves in positions of authority, or those that see themselves as the anal protectors of all things good and pure, see fit to babysit and squash their competitors by eliminating marketing that is direct and inexpensive and must find a free and easy way to see what their competitors are doing by making them submit copy of advertising. This is an inappropriate, overreaching, unnecessary, and unfair conversion of business practices.
It is also ironic that more government/bar intrusion is sought in a state that prides itself for being conservative and claiming it wants less government.
Stop babysitting and imposing old-fashioned notions created to squash competition, but passed in the guise of protecting our standards of ethics.
Sincerely, Loren M. Lambert
