The Morgan Legal Group PLLC Receives Better Business Bureau Accreditation



The Morgan Legal Group, PLLC is proud to announce it has received Better Business Bureau Accreditation.


If a business has been Accredited by the Better Business Bureau (BBB), it means BBB has determined that the business meets Accreditation Standards. These standards are based on BBB's determination of the attributes of a better business. They incorporate not only lawful business practices, but also BBB's experience with ethical advertising, selling and customer experiences. For a business to qualify for BBB Accreditation, it must continually meet these standards. Not all businesses will qualify for BBB Accreditation.


To be accredited by BBB, a business or organization affirms that it meets and will abide by the following standards:

  • Be actively selling products or services for at least six months prior to application or have previously operated a similar business with an eligible business performance track record.

  • Fulfill all competency and trade licensing requirements.

  • Be free from government action that demonstrates a significant failure to support BBB ethical principles. BBB evaluates the action and makes a determination on adherence to this standard based on the nature of the violation and the extent of harm it caused or is alleged to have caused, whether it was caused or condoned by management, and actions taken to resolve underlying issues that led to the government action.

  • Maintain at least a B rating at the local office and its headquarters.


Advertise Honestly Follow established legal and ethical advertising and selling practices, including, but not limited to, the BBB Code of Advertising.

  • Work with BBB and agree to modify, substantiate or discontinue advertising and selling practices when recommended.

    1. direct and effective means to contact the business

    2. the business' return/refund policy

    3. any recurring commitment into which the customer may be entering, including automatic renewals, payments or other financial commitments.

    4. total cost of the transaction, including tax, shipping and handling, and other related charges prior to completion of the transaction

    5. any known delays or shortages of stock

    6. a receipt summarizing the transaction after the purchase


Honor Promises Fulfill all contracts, commitments and representations.

  • Provide a response to each complaint that:

    1. Is professional,

    2. addresses all significant issues raised by the complainant,

    3. includes appropriate evidence and documents supporting the business' position, and

    5. how it is secured;

    6. how policy changes will be communicated; and

    7. how to address concerns over misuse of personal data.

  • Ensure sensitive data (credit card, bank account numbers, Social Security/Social Insurance number, salary or other personal financial or health information) is collected and transmitted via secure means. Businesses will comply with applicable legal requirements and industry standards for the protection and proper disposal of all sensitive data, both online and offline.

  • Respect customer preferences regarding contact by telephone and e-mail, and remedy the underlying cause of any failure to do so.


Embody Integrity Approach all business dealings, marketplace transactions and commitments with integrity, good faith and intent to do what is reasonably expected.
