Regulation 42

A legal practitioner must ensure that any publicity relating to the legal practitioner’s practice complies with these Rules, whether that publicity is by the legal practitioner or by any other person on the legal practitioner’s behalf.

Where a legal practitioner becomes aware of any impropriety in any publicity relating to the legal practitioner’s practice or the practice of a law practice of which the legal practitioner is a director or a partner, the legal practitioner must use the legal practitioner’s best endeavours to procure the rectification or withdrawal of the publicity, and to prevent the recurrence of the impropriety.

Where the Council determines that any publicity relating to the practice of a legal practitioner or law practice is contrary to any provision of these Rules, the Council may order the legal practitioner or law practice to alter, withdraw, remove or discontinue the publicity or cause the publicity to be altered, withdrawn, removed or discontinued.

A legal practitioner or law practice must ensure that any publicity relating to the practice of the legal practitioner or law practice does not make use of the armorial bearings of the Society.
