on 03 july 2008, the louisiana supreme court announced its adoption of comprehensive amendments to the rules of professional conduct. 22 page .pdf
this new rule change was brought about due to senator rob marionneaux who in the 2006 regular session of the louisiana legislature, offered his senate concurrent resolution no. 113. scr113 requested the louisiana state supreme court to establish a committee to study attorney advertising.
scr113 states in part that the "manner in which some members of the louisiana state bar association are advertising their services in this state has become undignified and poses a threat to the way attorneys are perceived in this state..."

but there is a local attorney, a criminal defense lawyer named david stone who has pretty cool commercials:
but alas it looks like even his commercials will not be allowed under the new rules. thats a shame.
