Kentucky may regulate lawyers? use of social media

By Pamela

ADVERTISEMENTS

The magic 8-ball has spoken.  It’s the wave of the future.  Lawyers will use social media to solicit potential clients.  Bar associations will seek to regulate the content of social media solicitations just as they regulate advertising elsewhere.  The Kentucky Bar apparently is the first state bar to propose a specific regulation targeting Facebook and the like.  Solicitations through social media would be prohibited unless lawyers pay a $75 filing fee and permit regulation by the bar?s Advertising Commission.  See this recent ABA Journal article and the source article from the Louisville Courier-Journal.  And see my previous post on this issue here: Ethical use of social media.
