I saw a few of these "vandalized" billboards until I looked it up and realized it's just an advertising scheme. It's so fucking stupid because I thought these fuckers got what they deserved until I realize they themselves did it just to get people to look at their ads more and create discussion.

The tipoff for me was that no actual graffiti artist is going to write "LOL❗". That's out of touch marketer terminology.

Which is an interesting tactic because like you, I thought the law firm was scam and people hated it enough to risk jail to deface. So now I know of them but think badly of them due to association. Great job, PR team!

One of these times I can be glad that my memory functions about as well as an oil tanker trying to fly

This post is what made me realize the vandalized one I saw was fake. Goddamn.

Morgan and Morgan is a big name law firm in the southern US, they started in Orlando. They're expensive and their marketing is obnoxious, but if you've got an extremely high profile case they might be a decent choice. Also, the founder John Morgan is allegedly a well known barfly in Orlando and the rumor in Orlando is that he's gotten quite a few DUIs.

So its an anti-corperate protest by the people by vandalising their ads . Thanks for the answer :)
