Lawyer advertisement is one of the most commercially contested spaces in marketing.

False advertising laws exist to protect consumers from misleading claims, but they also define the boundaries within which every marketer operates. In the United States, the Federal Trade Commission sets and enforces the core rules: claims must be truthful, substantiated, and not likely to mislead a reasonable consumer.
