Bar Advertising Compliance Checklist for Attorney Websites
The 20-point checklist every attorney should review before publishing or updating their website.
Why advertising compliance matters
Most attorneys know the rules exist, but few have systematically reviewed their website against them. This checklist makes it simple.
State bars actively enforce advertising rules
Bar associations regularly audit attorney websites and social media profiles. Non-compliant advertising is one of the most common sources of disciplinary complaints.
Violations can mean disciplinary action
Consequences range from private reprimands to public censure, suspension, or even disbarment in severe cases. The rules vary significantly by state.
Compliance protects your clients and your reputation
Proper disclaimers and honest advertising set correct expectations, reduce malpractice risk, and build trust with potential clients.
What the checklist covers
20 compliance items across 5 categories, each with a clear explanation and a link to check your state bar rules.
