The Federal Trade Commission may issue new guidelines that limit the use of endorsements and testimonials in ads, according to Jeffrey Knowles, Venable LLP, at the Council of Better Business Bureaus' National Advertising Division annual conference.

In 2006, a number of lawsuits involving personal care companies and their use of testimonials were filed.
