Compliance posture
PennsylvaniaState Bar advertising rules & court venue
State bar advertising rules
Pennsylvania Rules of Professional Conduct 7.1–7.5 govern attorney advertising. Rule 7.2 specifically restricts certain comparative and superlative claims. Pennsylvania does not certify PI specialists, so any 'specialist' claim requires careful disclaimer. The 2-year Pennsylvania statute of limitations for personal injury (42 Pa.C.S. § 5524) creates urgency in claimant outreach and must be referenced compliantly in marketing copy. TCPA one-to-one consent applies federally.
