Going months at a time without his Facebook account for his legal practice has allegedly cost him thousands of dollars in advertising and communication with clients

Take a hint, get a professional website and don’t rely on Facebook to host your business.

You have to meet clients where they are. These days, clients are far less likely to find you if you only have a site with no social media presence.

You could say the same about any social media site really.

The whole point of social media is to communicate with other people. Facebook is the largest one, so if you want to contact a business or person, they're more likely to be on Facebook than any other site. Probably the main exception are younger people (and companies run by them), where they're more active on TikTok and Instagram.
