License Plate Law Puts Ariz. Attorneys in Driver's Seat for Marketing Efforts
An Arizona law requiring license plates to be installed so that the state’s name is not obscured apparently has provided a lucrative marketing opportunity for a few enterprising criminal defense attorneys.
After 100 state residents showed up earlier for help getting their license plates put on correctly, Michael Urbano and William Morris are planning another parking lot installation session from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, reports the Ahwatukee Foothills News. The two work together at a criminal defense firm in the Phoenix area.
In addition to helping motorists avoid a possible $135 fine, complying with the law eliminates a potential reason for police to pull motorists over for further investigation on other fronts, Urbano told the newspaper in an earlier article.
The license plate law was enacted in 2006 but only became effective on Jan. 1 of this year.
