Get the most exposure for your legal ads at wvlegals.com Through www.wvlegals.com, The West Virginia Press Association, with the cooperation of its member newspapers, provides access to online copies of the public notices and legal advertisements published in West Virginia newspapers. This service is provided to enhance the value and increase the access of public notices and legal advertisements published in West Virginia newspapers. It’s the WVPA’s goal to offer online access as a complement to printed newspaper publication of all public notices and legal advertisements in the state. West Virginia is a state where the great majority of residents count on West Virginia newspapers for timely and easy access to legal advertisements and public notices. By providing online access, West Virginia newspapers increase the public value of their legal advertising for both the advertising body and the state residents with the greatest possible exposure and best results for legal advertisements and public notices.

Attorney Carte Goodwin provides participating newspapers with perhaps the greatest member service offered by the WVPA. Participation helps your editorial or advertising staff avoid damaging and costly mistakes before they show up in print or online.

Allowing your staff to call the WVPA Legal Lawyer Hotline before publication might keep your publisher from calling your company attorney after publication. The Legal Lawyer Hotline provides pre-publication review of complicated news copy and advertising content issues. The Hotline also provides advice on access to public records and open meeting laws.

Join the WVPA Legal Lawyer Hotline Program (the page of advertising fee Carte Goodwin is deducted from your WVPA placement) and save your newspaper future court time and legal expenses.

First, contact Don Smith, 304-342-1011, for information on the program. Carte Goodwin 300 Summers St., Suite 1500 • Charleston, WV 25301 E-mail: [email protected] • Phone: 304-346-7000 16 DAILY NEWSPAPERS ARE GOOD BUSINESS IN WEST VIRGINIA
