The legal basics for Bunkie businesses online
Selling or advertising online does not change the rules, but these apply to many Bunkie businesses:
- A federal rule (16 CFR Part 465) makes it unlawful to write, buy or sell fake reviews and testimonials, so the reviews on a business website have to be real. 16 CFR Part 465
- A trade name is registered with the Louisiana Secretary of State. A trade name identifies the business itself, which is different from a DBA used by an already registered entity. La. R.S. 51:211 et seq.
This is general information, not legal advice; check with the Louisiana agencies, Avoyelles Parish, the city of Bunkie or an attorney.
