While the practice might not breach ethics rules in PA (but still be scummy) , it doesn’t appear to be ethical in NY. And many of the victims were likely headed to NY and will likely call NY attorneys. Others may contact local counsel directly.

This is a bit of Wild West stuff going on, since there aren’t an abundance of ethics opinions (in NY, where it isn’t allowed) on the subject.

While done by a very small minority of people, it is often the bad stuff that people remember.

Side note: The new universal bar exam will worsen the situation unless ethics committees crack down on those who outsource their ethics to these marketing companies.
