BATES V. STATE BAR OF ARIZONA
433 U.S. 350 (1977)
NATURE OF THE CASE: This was a dispute over attorney advertising.
FACTS: Ds were attorneys who opened a low cost legal clinic. After two years of operation
they figured out that they could not survive unless they advertised. Ds placed an ad in the
Arizona Republic, a daily newspaper, which stated that they were offering legal services for
reasonable fees and they even had the unmitigated gall to list their fees for certain
services. Ds conceded that this advertisement constituted a clear violation of 2-101(B).
They were suspended for practice for one week. The result was affirmed and eventually it got
to the U.S Supreme Court.
