Before any Oregon ad runs.
A plain summary of the official rules, checked October 28, 2026. It is not legal advice: read the rules at the link and ask the bar's ethics line when in doubt. Every ad we write for a Oregon firm is built to these rules, and you approve it before it runs.
Oregon has no ad filing, no required label and no post-accident waiting period, but every online ad must be truthful and name a responsible lawyer or firm with contact information, and you may not solicit anyone who said no or is in no state to decide.
- Who enforces it
- Oregon State Bar (for the Oregon Supreme Court)
- Filing or review
- No general filing requirement found in the official rules. RPC 7.1 to 7.3 contain no filing, pre-approval or copy-retention requirement. The bar removed the 'Advertising Material' label requirement in 2017.
- Required labels
- None beyond ABA-style. Any communication under RPC 7.2 must include the name and contact information of at least one lawyer or law firm responsible for its content (RPC 7.2(c)). The 'Advertising Material' label for solicitations was deleted effective January 1, 2017.
- Testimonials, results, specialist
- Only the general RPC 7.1 standard applies: no false or misleading communications, including omissions of a fact needed to keep the statement from being misleading. RPC 7.4 is reserved, so there is no separate specialist-claim rule, and such claims fall under RPC 7.1.
- Online ads
- RPC 7.2(a) allows advertising through written, recorded or electronic communication, including public media. RPC 7.5(a) bars a firm name, letterhead or other professional designation that violates RPC 7.1, and bars trade names that imply a government or charitable legal services connection. The rules text contains nothing specific to social media, paid search or AI.
- ChatGPT Ads
- OpenAI accepts US law-firm ads from firms licensed where the ad runs, after business verification and ad review. A ChatGPT ad aimed at Oregon needs your Oregon license, and it is still lawyer advertising under the rules above.

Oregon law firm marketing, answered plainly.
Can Oregon lawyers advertise on ChatGPT?
Yes. OpenAI accepts US law-firm ads from firms licensed where the ad runs, after business verification and ad review, so a Oregon campaign needs your Oregon license. The ad is still lawyer advertising under the Oregon rules, so the same content rules apply. Campaigns can start at $25 a day in ad spend.
Do Oregon law firm ads have to be filed with the bar?
We found no general filing requirement in the Oregon rules. The content rules still apply to every ad, online ones included. Source: Oregon State Bar (for the Oregon Supreme Court), checked October 28, 2026.
