influenced
by
the
lawyer.
Indirect
advertisement for business by furnishing or
inspiring newspaper comments concerning
the manner of their conduct, the magnitude
of the interests involved, the importance of
the lawyers position, and all other like selflaudation, defy the traditions and lower the
tone of our high calling, and are intolerable.
It is unprofessional for a lawyer to volunteer
advice to bring a lawsuit, except in rare
cases where ties of blood, relationship or
trust make it his duty to do so.
Tagordas liability is however mitigated by
the fact that he is a young inexperienced
lawyer and that he was unaware of the
impropriety of his acts. So instead of being
disbarred, he was suspended from the
practice of law for a month.
Rule 3.02 - In the choice of a firm name,
no false, misleading or assumed name
shall be used. The continued use of the
name
of
a
deceased
partner
is
permissible provided that the firm
indicates in all its communications that
said partner is deceased.
