87 N.J.L.J. 190
March 26, 1964

ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON PROFESSIONAL ETHICS
 
Appointed by the New Jersey Supreme Court
 


OPINION 35

Advertising

This inquiry involves the propriety of an attorney permitting the publication of an unsolicited advertisement described as an "article" in a legal periodical by a nationally known dictation machine manufacturer in which his efficient and advantageous use of the machine is vividly portrayed by words and photograph. In our opinion the cooperation and acquiescence of the lawyer in publication of such an "article" would be in violation of the Canons of Professional Ethics, Canon 27. See N.J. Advisory Committee on Professional Ethics, Opinion 38, 87 N.J.L.J. 190 (1964), and ABA Comm. on Professional Ethics and Grievances, Opinion 42 (1931).
