Consumer Advocate: It is generally true, at least in this state, that lawyers who advertise a specific service charge less for that service than lawyers who do not advertise. It is also true that EACH TIME RESTRICTIONS ON THE ADVERTISING OF LEGAL SERVICES HAVE BEEN ELMINATED, THE NUMBER OF LAWYERS ADVERTISING THEIR SERVICES HAS INCREASED AND LEGAL COSTS TO CONSUMERS HAVE DECLINED IN CONSEQUENCE. However, eliminating the state requirement that legal advertisements must specify fees for specific services would almost certainly increase rather than further reduce consumers' legal costs. Lawyers would no longer have an incentive to lower their fees when they begin advertising and IF NO LONGER REQUIRED TO SPECIFY FEE ARRANGEMENTS, MANY LAWYERS WHO NOW ADVERTISE WOULD INCREASE THEIR FEES.

B. the first is a pattern of cause and effect that the consumer advocate argues will be repeated in the case at issue; the second acknowledges a circumstance in which that pattern would not hold.

C. the first is a pattern of cause and effect that the consumer advocate predicts will not hold in the case at issue; the second offers a consideration in support of that prediction

this is crazyness.. A, D and E were quickly eliminated.

IMO - C


B. the first is a pattern of cause and effect that the consumer advocate argues will be repeated in the case at issue; the second acknowledges a circumstance in which that pattern would not hold.

I'd go with C.

The pattern is: restrictions eliminated--->more ads and lower fees.

HOWEVER (a key transition)

The current restriction being eliminated is the specification of fees in advertisements. The author believes that this will lead to increased fees.

Thus, we still have the cause (a restriction being eliminated), but the original effect (lower fees) will not happen.

Thanks Bill! but my problem with this problem is that nowhere does it state that the restriction will be eliminated.. it simpmly says If it WERE eliminated...yadda yadda... but B and C is completely dependent on knowing if the author believse it will be eliminated or not. what am i missing here?

Well, "the case at issue" mentioned in both B and C is the potential elimination of that requirement. Thus, the key difference is that B says the pattern will hold and C says the pattern will not hold.

What is the "case at issue" referring to? I thought it was referring to whether or not the requirement will be elminated. If not, the pattern of cause and effect will be repeated. If so, the pattern of cause in affect with not hold...

Yes, that's what the case at issue is...that's what I said. If that requirement isn't eliminated, then we don't have the cause and the cause-effect relationship doesn't exist in this instance.

hmm im not sure i understand...the cause (eliminating legal restrictions) does happen, then the effect (lower fees) will happen... UNLESS B's 2nd bold: a circumstance when this cause and effect will not happen..

it just seems to me as if b and c are saying the same exact thing.

But B says that the pattern will be repeated hold in the case at issue (the elimination of the restriction). We don't really have a separate circumstance as the second half of B says.
