Supreme Court of Florida Revises Rules on Attorney Advertising
Brief Summary
The Florida Supreme Court has revised lawyer advertising rules under the Rules of Professional Conduct effective January 1, 2007. Commercials broadcast on television or radio must be submitted to the Florida Bar for evaluation at least 15 days before they are aired. If lawyers practice regularly in Florida, they must comply with Florida’s advertising rules if they solicit for clients in Florida even if they are only licensed in other states.
