Chicago divorce lawyer ad

A racy ad for a Chicago divorce lawyer got a ton of publicity...here and here.

The city of Chicago has taken down a racy billboard that proclaimed "Life is short. Get a divorce." The billboard featured photos of a scantily clad woman and a shirtless man and was an ad for Chicago divorce attorney Corri Fetman.

As someone who practices a good bit of family law, I've never seen nor heard of Ms. Fetman. Sadly I see this perspective as the majority view of family law practitioners. I disagree with it personally. I'm in the field because I think family break-up is tragic and also because it places people and their children in a very vulnerable position. I think I can bring some effective advocacy and a little light to these dark situations. My $.02.
