Tips For Writing Your Legal Ad

Keep your legal ad short and to the point. It is good to touch briefly on any facts that could aid your case, but lengthy ads are not recommended. Your ad is designed to capture the viewer's attention and heart. You are looking for help. There will be time to go into specific detail later. This is your plea for help. Use your words wisely.

When writing to human rights groups or attorneys, be sure to include the web address to your legal ad. This will be provided to you when we send you your welcome packet. You can place both legal and personal ads on our website. A link from one to the other is always provided at no extra charge.

For legal reasons, you cannot list people by name in your legal ad. Again, this is all information which can be exchanged through postal mail. You are welcome to use initials of any party involved in your case when writing your legal ad.

If possible, include a photo in your legal ad. People always identify better with a person than just a story. It helps to put a face with a cause.
