James Alexander Law
James has been a strong proponent of lawyer advertising as it benefits the public by informing people of their rights and assists them in retaining counsel.
Some years ago State Judges attempted to restrict the content of lawyers’ commercials. James believed this was an unconstitutional restraint on free speech. He filed suit and won the case before the Second Circuit Court of Appeals. The restrictive rules were struck down. This is one of the most significant cases in recent history regarding lawyer advertising and it put James on the front page of the Wall Street Journal: See Here.
