Florida Bar v. Went For It, Inc.

''Florida Bar v. Went For It, Inc.'', , was a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court upheld a state's restriction on lawyer advertising under the First Amendment's commercial speech doctrine. The Court's decision was the first time it did so since ''Bates v. State Bar of Arizona'', , lifted the traditional ban on lawyer advertising.
== Background ==
In 1989, the Florida Bar completed a two-year survey of public opinion of lawyers. It discovered that lawyers had a bad reputation stemming from their advertising activities. Accordingly, the Florida Bar proposed modifications to its rules regulating lawyer advertising in Florida. These modifications had the effect of creating a thirty-day blackout period after an accident or disaster during which lawyers were forbidden from soliciting business from the victims of such accidents or disasters, either directly or through a referral service.
On March 22, 1992, a lawyer named G. Stewart McHenry, together with a lawyer referral service he owned called Went For It, Inc., filed a suit for declaratory and injunctive relief in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida. McHenry argued that the 30-day blackout period violated the First Amendment right to free speech, insofar as Went For It sought to contact victims of accidents and disasters within 30 days of the incident. After McHenry was disbarred for unrelated reasons, another lawyer, John Blakely, was substituted for McHenry.
Relying on ''Bates v. State Bar of Arizona'', , the district court entered summary judgment for Blakely and Went For It, believing that ''Bates'' compelled it to set aside the blackout period. The Eleventh Circuit affirmed on similar grounds, although it claimed to be "disturbed that ''Bates'' and its progeny required the decision" in the case. The U.S. Supreme Court accepted the Florida Bar's request that it review the case.
