Sec. 08.04.610. Deceptive use of title or designation by firm.
A person may not assume or use the title or designation “certified public accountant” or “public accountant” or an abbreviation of them in conjunction with a name indicating or implying that there is a firm, or in conjunction with the designation “and Company,” “and Co.,” “L.L.C.,” “LLC,” “Ltd.,” or any similar designation, unless there is a bona fide firm holding a permit issued under that name. However, a sole proprietor or partnership lawfully using the title or designation “certified public accountant” or “public accountant” or an abbreviation of them in conjunction with those names or designation on April 26, 1960, may continue to do so if the person or partnership otherwise complies with this chapter.
