Before any Tennessee 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 Tennessee firm is built to these rules, and you approve it before it runs.
Tennessee does not make you file online ads, but each one must name a responsible lawyer, you must keep a copy for 2 years, and targeted outreach after an accident has a 30-day wait.
- Who enforces it
- Board of Professional Responsibility of the Supreme Court of Tennessee
- Filing or review
- No general filing requirement found in the official rules. No filing or pre-approval requirement appears in the rule text. Lawyers must keep a copy or recording of each ad for 2 years with a record of when and where it ran (RPC 7.1(c)).
- Required labels
- Every communication must include the name and contact information of at least one lawyer or law firm responsible for it (RPC 7.1(b)). Targeted written, recorded or electronic solicitations must carry 'Advertising Material' on the envelope, if any, and at the beginning and end of the communication.
- Contacting accident victims
- 30 days: no targeted solicitation about a personal injury, wrongful death, workers' compensation, divorce or other accident or disaster matter until more than 30 days after the event, unless the lawyer has a family, close personal or prior professional relationship (RPC 7.3).
- Testimonials, results, specialist
- Follows the ABA approach: truthful results can still be misleading if they suggest the same outcome for others, and a disclaimer may cure that. A lawyer may not say 'specialist' unless certified by an ABA-accredited organization and registered with the Tennessee Commission on CLE, except patent and admiralty.
- Online ads
- Comments say the Internet and electronic communication are proper advertising channels, and that a website, banner ad or response to an Internet search is not a solicitation. Board guidelines on websites and e-mail may be adopted (RPC 7.1 comment on record keeping).
- 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 Tennessee needs your Tennessee license, and it is still lawyer advertising under the rules above.
