No attorney-client relationship.

Viewing this web site, or sending an e-mail message to any legal services program or any attorney mentioned on this web site does NOT create an attorney-client relationship between you and the legal services program or the attorney. Unless you are already a client of the attorney, your e-mail may NOT be protected by the attorney-client privilege. Also, in some situations, e-mail can be intercepted by persons other than the recipient. Deadlines are extremely important in most legal matters and you may lose important legal rights if you do not hire an attorney immediately to advise you. Many people do not check their e-mail daily, and most attorneys do not respond to unsolicited e-mail from non-clients. If you have a legal problem, you should not rely on email to try to find an attorney to assist you.

​​​

​

Lawyer Advertising.

In some states this web site may be considered lawyer advertising. Any listing of an attorney on this website is not a recommendation of the attorney. Before hiring any attorney, you should investigate the attorney's reputation and qualifications.
