Advertising: A ‘really dynamic area of law’

As someone who grew up during the advent of social media, the advertising laws surrounding such platforms have become a point of fascination for Isabella Orlic. There is, she details, a huge amount happening legally in this space right now. In this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with BlackBay Lawyers graduate Isabella Orlic about her interest in advertising law and how it pertains to social media platforms, the inherent challenges being seen and experienced at this juncture, and whether the law is keeping up with the proliferation of development. Ms Orlic also discusses the onuses being placed on lawyers operating in this space, current regulatory guidelines and how they play out in certain examples (including how lawyers can advertise themselves), best practice for advertising, the emergence of “bluewashing”, and why practising in advertising law is so stimulating.
