Reminder: You can comment on the ABA's proposed amendments to rules regarding advertising

The Ethics Committee wants to hear your opinion on its draft and your ideas for making it better.  You have two ways to communicate your thoughts and suggestions: (1) attend the February 2, 2018, public forum in Vancouver, Canada held in conjunction with the ABA MidYear Meeting and (2) provide written comment to the Committee through its email address modelruleamend@americanbar.org.  The Center’s Ethics Department has compiled a summary of the proposed amendments.
