Louisiana Attorney Advertising Disclaimers
In Louisiana, the Bar requires all attorneys to include a disclaimer on their website that states the limitations of any claims they make. Accel Marketing Solutions ensures this is included on all websites to protect your law firm from winding up in a legal battle with clients. Whenever we create a website, we provide a disclaimer that lets readers know the information on the website should not be considered legal advice, and an attorney-client relationship is not established by reading the information or filling out a contact form.
Louisiana Rules for Professional Conduct
In the state of Louisiana, attorneys are required to follow the Rules for Professional Conduct implemented by the Bar.
