Supreme Court considering changing lawyer ad rules
Headline News
The state Supreme Court is considering changing Indiana's rules governing advertising by attorneys.
State Trial Court Services Director Tom Carusillo says many of the proposed changes are designed to clarify the rules' language or update the rules to fit modern communications technologies such as the Internet.
He says one proposed change would broaden a rule to allow more attorneys to advertise as specialists if they are certified in a particular field of law.
The Supreme Court's rules committee will be accepting comments on the proposed changes from judges, lawyers and the public until March 1.
