Lawyers in New York are now capable of claiming that they can jump buildings in a single bound and stop bullets with their teeth in their ads, though it is unclear how these traits would encourage clients to hire them as lawyers. Nonetheless, according to courthouse news.com, “The 2nd Circuit struck down most of New York’s content-based restrictions on attorney advertisements, ruling that even an ad depicting giant lawyers with superhuman speed who regularly defend space aliens is not likely to mislead consumers.” Now, lawyers are capable of advertising in almost anyway they want, except for (1) depicting fictitious law firms, and (2) referring to specific incidents before 30 days have gone by since the incidents’ occurrence. The change actually resulted because the law firm Alexander & Catalano, led by lawyer James Alexander, had actually created an ad fitting the description provided in the quote, of lawyers defending space aliens.
