The new social media campaign includes a series of four animated adverts showcasing family law, Wills and Power of Attorney, Road Traffic Accidents and Buying a House.

The new adverts will be appearing on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube over the next six months as the campaign is rolled out.

Eileen Ewing, president of the Society, said: “The Law Society of Northern Ireland is delighted to launch our new social media campaign. The new campaign is an extension of the successful ASK – A Solicitor Knows campaign, which has been running for the last three years.

“The Society recognises the growing importance of social media as a means to engage with new audiences and to communicate key messages in formats they understand. The new adverts reflect the Society’s ongoing commitment to promoting the solicitor profession to the widest possible audiences using new communication mediums.”
