South Carolina Attorney Advertising Disclaimers
Accel Marketing Solutions, Inc. was founded on the premise that if our clients do not succeed, we do not succeed. Of course, a vibrant, one-of-a-kind marketing campaign is the backbone of any successful law firm or business, however, solid marketing is only such if it complies with the rules set out for attorney marketing in your state. That is why when we create a website, we include attorney advertising disclaimers so your readers understand that any information on your website is not to be taken as legal advice, and that solely reading your website or filling out a contact form does not establish an attorney-client relationship.
