Press Release

CHICAGO (August 8, 2018) The Association of Professional Responsibility Lawyers (APRL) is pleased to report that the American Bar Association (ABA) on Monday, August 6, 2018 adopted amendments to the lawyer advertising rules in the ABA’s Model Rules of Professional Conduct. The new rules arose from APRL’s efforts and its 2015 Report of the APRL Regulation of Lawyer Advertising Committee.   These newest changes will now be considered by many jurisdictions as replacements for their existing rules regulating lawyer advertising.
