Special Counsel to Exhibit at Association of Corporate Counsel Exposition

18 October 2005

Special Counsel(R),
the legal staffing unit of MPS Group, Inc. (NYSE: MPS), today announced that
it will exhibit at the annual meeting of the Association of Corporate Counsel
(ACC) in Washington, DC, October 17-19, 2005.
Known as the largest nationwide assembly of corporate counsels, the theme
of this year's annual ACC meeting is using compliance for a competitive
advantage. Given the recent implementation of many new corporate governance
requirements, this topic promises to be highly relevant to the legal
community. The exposition, a well-attended and highlighted component of the
convention, will feature an open-forum discussion between Special Counsel,
other providers of legal products and services, and attendees, and will focus
on the theme of workforce solutions in the legal community.
Special Counsel representatives will also provide information about its
medical document review service and Concise(R) deposition summary service, two
value-added services developed to complement existing solutions and better
serve Special Counsel's law firm and legal department clients.
