2. No Attorney-Client Relationship

Using this website, submitting a contact form, sending an email, or speaking with us by phone does not create an attorney-client relationship.

Until then, we owe you no duty of confidentiality, loyalty, or representation.

3. Not Legal Advice

The content on this website is provided for general informational purposes only and does not constitute legal advice. Laws change and outcomes depend on the specific facts of each matter. You should not act or refrain from acting based on information on this site without first consulting a licensed attorney about your particular situation.

13. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

Except where prohibited by law, any dispute arising out of or relating to this website or these Terms will be resolved by binding arbitration administered under the rules of a recognized arbitration provider, on an individual basis. You and the firm waive the right to a jury trial and the right to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision does not apply to the attorney-client relationship, which is governed by your separate written engagement agreement and applicable rules of professional conduct.

14. Severability and Entire Agreement

If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and Disclaimer, constitute the entire agreement between you and the firm regarding the website.
