If you’re starting a new business, one of the first legal steps many entrepreneurs take is filing a Fictitious Name, also known as a “Doing Business As” (DBA). In Florida, part of that process often includes publishing a public notice—and that’s where Community Newspapers comes in.
Community Newspapers publishes legal and public notices in both Miami-Dade and Broward Counties, serving as a trusted source for fulfilling local and state publication requirements. With over six decades of experience, Community Newspapers helps individuals, attorneys, and business professionals meet legal requirements while also reaching an audience that’s deeply connected to South Florida communities.
Why Publish a Fictitious Name/DBA Notice?
In the state of Florida, when registering a Fictitious Name with the Florida Division of Corporations, the filer must confirm that a legal notice has been published in a newspaper located in the county where the business operates. This is more than a formality—it’s a matter of compliance and transparency. These notices allow the public to be informed about new businesses and name changes, helping maintain integrity in the marketplace.
Trusted for All Types of Legal Notices
In addition to Fictitious Name/DBA notices, Community Newspapers publishes a wide range of legal ads, including:
- Probate notices
- Notice to Creditors
- Divorce filings
- Foreclosure sales
- Public auctions
- Name changes
- Governmental and municipal announcements

Many of these legal matters require public notification by law, and Community Newspapers is a reliable partner for attorneys, title companies, real estate professionals, and private citizens looking to meet those requirements.
