What is the law on 'Advertise Here' advertising boards?
Q. Can I put up an advertising board, one of those 'Advertise Here' boards at the bottom of my garden? The garden is about 2m from from an A road slip road where cars are slowing down to some traffic lights. Generally when the lights are at red, cars back up along the slip road at the back of my garden. Now, to earn some extra income, I'm wondering can I put up one of those 'Advertise Here' boards, or am I going to get sued by the first car crash?

A. Contact your local council planning department they will be able to advise you. I would imagine you will require planning permission, you may well get objections from neighbours if you are going to cause an eyesore.

Is there a law regarding political advertising by a corporation towards its employees?
Q. I have a feeling its ok to do this, but if anyone has proof otherwise, I'd like to know. Basically it involves a company posting a large poster meant to gather support for a ballot resolution that would greatly benefit the company. The poster is displayed in the employee break room.

Is it because lawyers don't want the public to know, so they can get as much money left over as possible?

A. At one time, advertising was considered outsidde the pale for law firms, but today, the canons of the ABA allow it. There are more productive sources of business than multiply or facebook, however. One of the best ideas, for instance, is free seminars in different locales. Promote to family and child welfare specialists in the public sector, who will hand out your flyers to their clients.
