Synopsis:
How can lawyers market themselves in today's digital landscape while upholding the professionalism and integrity of the profession?
As lawyers increasingly engage with the public through webinars, podcasts, social media and other digital platforms, understanding the ethical boundaries of legal marketing has become more important than ever.
The first instalment of
the Professional Ethics Digest Series discusses the boundaries of legal
marketing, including key themes and ethical
rules distilled from the
practical guidance provided in the Professional Ethics Digest 2026.
The Law Society published the Professional
Ethics Digest 2026, a comprehensive reference resource containing 82
anonymised ethics guidances issued by the Professional Conduct Council's
Advisory Committee between January 2020 and January 2026.
PED 2026 provides practical guidance on professional conduct and ethics issues
commonly encountered by legal practitioners, with insights drawn from
real-world ethics queries submitted by members of the profession.
