The New York Bar's ethics in advertising changes have just been released. I've posted a red-lined version of the advertising rules here.

I have not had time to digest them fully but they seemed to have relaxed some of the more onerous provisions.

And yes, thank goodness, you can still use a pop up on your own website! (The blanket ban on pop ups on lawyer websites was really silly... what if the pop up said "the hiring of a lawyer is a very important decision....don't make that decision on the basis of a website"?)

Besides, pop ups are yesterday's technology.. wait till they see what's coming next!
