Regulations may provide for restrictions on a practitioner making or causing to be made, unsolicited approaches to a person or group of persons with a view to being instructed to provide legal services. They may provide for the manner in which the Authority is to determine whether the particular advertisement is, has contravened the legislation.<\/p>\n
A legal practitioner shall not publish an advertisement that is likely to bring the legal profession into disrepute, is in bad taste, reflects unfavourably another legal practitioner, is false or misleading in any respect, is published in an inappropriate location, and does not comply with regulations made above.<\/p>\n
No professional code shall operate to prevent a group of barristers to share facility, premises or cost of practice, from advertising themselves as a group.<\/p>\n
An advertisement is widely defined as including any communication, whether oral or written, in visual or another form, which is intended to publicise or otherwise promote a legal practitioner in relation to legal services. It includes brochures, notices, circulars, posters, photographs, articles, stationery for general publication.<\/p>\n
It may include electronic information, presentation, lecture, seminars, interviews, audio or video training. It does not include a communication that is primarily intended to give information on the law.<\/p>\n\n
