1. Start with the actual Google eligibility question
Google states that Local Services screening varies by service category, country and whether a provider advertises directly or through an affiliate. Google’s checks vary by practice category and account; review the current identity, licensing, insurance and business-verification requirements that apply to your firm. Google also requires advertisers to follow its advertising policies and Local Services requirements. A Florida firm should not assume that a Google Verified badge, category or launch date is available without checking the account’s current requirements.
Recommended approach
Use the review to identify the applicable law-firm category, required documentation and unresolved verification questions. Have the responsible attorney review advertising decisions against Florida Bar guidance and resources. Bosseo can help evaluate the setup; neither this page nor a review certifies compliance or eligibility.
