Too Close to Home: How Local Enforcement Authorities Are Presenting an Often Overlooked Regulatory Threat to Advertisers

WHERE : Online

WHEN : November 20, 2024

While many advertisers are aware of the ongoing threat of regulatory enforcement from federal and state-level government, significant regulatory authority can often go overlooked much closer to home. From municipal agencies to city councils and district attorneys, these localized regulatory bodies can often possess extensive investigatory power. This presents serious legal considerations for advertisers, and for those that run afoul of local law, which can eventually lead to costly penalties or prolonged litigation. In this panel, we will discuss the implications of local enforcement for advertisers, and how they can best prepare themselves to avoid these often overlooked liabilities.
